CARAMEL BANANA CREPES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine flour, eggs, butter, and sugar, stirring until ingredients are slightly mixed.
• Add the milk ½ cup (120 ml) at a time, stirring vigorously, making sure the milk is completely incorporated into the batter and that the batter is smooth before adding more milk.
• Repeat with the rest of the milk. The batter should be very liquidy and have no lumps.
• In a pan over medium heat, pour ⅓ cup (95 grams) of the batter in the center and swirl the batter around the edges of the pan until set.
• To know when the crepe is ready to flip, lift up one of the edges about ⅓ of the way. The bottom side should be golden brown. Flip the crepe.
• Cook until the edges are starting to slightly crisp.
• Remove from heat and cover with a paper towel to make sure the crepes stay moist.
• In a pan over medium heat, mix the brown sugar and butter until slightly bubbling.
• Add the cinnamon and bananas, stirring until bananas are evenly coated with the caramel.
• Remove from heat and cool.
• Spread half of the banana mixture on half of one crepe.

BANANA-CARAMEL CAKE

Steps:

• PREPARE THE CAKE:.
• Preheat oven to 350ºF.
• Using a small brush, lightly coat two 9-inch cake pans with softened butter or vegetable-oil cooking spray.
• Dust with flour, tap out any excess, and set aside.
• Over a surface covered with a large sheet of waxed or parchment paper, sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Into a medium bowl, resift the flour mixture and set aside.
• In a large bowl, using a mixer set on medium-high speed, beat the butter until light -- about 1 minute.
• Add the sugar and continue to beat for 2 more minutes.
• Add the eggs, one at a time, beating thoroughly after each addition, and mix in the vanilla.
• Reduce mixer speed to low and add the flour mixture by thirds, alternating with the buttermilk and bananas and ending with the dry ingredients.
• Mix just enough to blend the batter after each addition.
• BAKE THE CAKE:.
• Divide the batter equally between the pans and bake on the middle rack of the oven until a tester inserted into each cake layer comes out clean -- 25 to 30 minutes.
• Cool in the cake pans on a wire rack for 15 minutes.
• Using a knife, loosen the cake layers from the pan sides and invert the layers onto the wire rack to cool completely.
• PREPARE THE ICING:.
• In a medium saucepan with a candy thermometer attached, stir sugar, heavy cream, and lemon juice together.
• Cook the mixture, without stirring, over medium-high heat to soft-ball stage (238ºF).
• Remove from heat and cool the caramel mixture to 140º F.
• Place the butter on top of the cooled caramel mixture.
• Remove the thermometer and, using a handheld mixer set on medium-high speed, beat the caramel until it thickens enough to hold its shape, lightens in color, and changes from translucent to opaque -- about 5 minutes.
• ICE THE CAKE:.
• Use a serrated knife to trim the mounded side of the cake layers, if necessary.
• Line the edges of a cake plate with 3-inch-wide strips of waxed or parchment paper and place a cake layer, trimmed side down, on top.
• Place 1 cup Caramel Icing on top of the layer and spread evenly.
• Place the second layer, trimmed side down, on the first and cover the top and sides with the remaining icing.
• Apply icing immediately.
• ENJOY!
