For extra flavor, add a splash of rum or bourbon to the brown sugar sauce.
If you don't have a crepe pan, a non-stick skillet works just as well.
The crepes can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat them gently before filling.
Feel free to substitute other fruits like strawberries, blueberries, or peaches for the bananas.

    I've made this recipe several times now, and it's always a hit. I like to add a little bit of orange zest to the crepe batter for extra flavor.
