Food Porn: Banana and Nutella Crepe

Lori of the food blog Dessert Comes First, just returned from what sounded like a fantastic trip to Paris. Like any good blogger, she took lots of photos of her trip, but what is more relevant to us is that she also took lots of photos of her food. She stopped in at what is said to be one of the best creperies in Paris and picked up this Banana and Nutella Crepe. Made on the spot, the hot crepe is quickly smeared with rich, creamy Nutella and a sliced banana. To contrast with the rich filling. A dollop of French vanilla ice cream - made with egg yolks, which provide the slightly yellow tinge, and real vanilla bean - adds a refreshingly cool and delicate layer of flavor to the plate.

Fortunately for those of use who aren't planning Paris trips in the near future, this is an easy treat to reproduce at home. You just need to start with a basic crepe recipe and pick up some Nutella at the market. It would also be brilliant with strawberries and any other fruit that you find works well with the chocolate-hazelnut spread.

Tip of the Day

The other day I was all set to make mashed potatoes -- I'd even peeled the cooked potatoes and placed them in my big bowl, when I realized that I couldn't find my masher! With a little bit of innovation, clumpless potatoes were only moments away.
