Banana Cheese Crepes


I love banana. I eat banana for snack and sometimes I have it for breakfast. Since I made banana chocolate pancake and it turned out to be very nice, I want to try other recipe.. banana cheese crepes :D

Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 5 minutes
Servings: 2
Difficulty: Easy

Ingredients:
1 tbsp butter / margarine / olive oil
125 ml pancake mix
94 ml cup water
1 egg
2 bananas - cut into half
cheese
3 tbsp chocolate syrup

Directions:
1. Mix batter (pancake mix + water + egg) according to package
2. Heat butter in a pan over low heat
3. Pour in some of the batter (don't put too many, so the the layer of batter will be thin) and tilt pan until batter covers the bottom of pan
4. Cook until crepe is lightly browned and dry, turn crepe and do the same



Try to make it as thin as possible.



The crepe on the right was my 1st attempt... and it failed miserably T^T. But I manage to get it right on my 2nd attempt (on the left) :P.



This is how thin it should be..

5. On the crepe, lay 2 slices of bananas with the cheese in the middle
6. Roll up the crepe



7. Put in the plate and pour the chocolate syrup over the crepes

Benefits of banana:
- Banana is good for anemia, kidney and eyesight protection
- Banana is good for bones, because it can increase our body's ability to absorb calcium
- Banana can prevent high blood pressure and stroke.

Benefits of cheese:
- Cheese is good for bones, because it has very high calcium content
- Cheese contains substances called Conjugated Linoleic Acid and Sphingolipids that help prevent cancer

The fat in cheese depends on the quality of the milk it was made with. Full fat, cream milk, low fat or fat free milk will determine how high the fat content of the cheese is. Make sure to look for the fat content in the cheese before you buy it.
