Happy Sunday!
I was craving something sweet but nothing overkill on unhealthy scale. I've been keeping a pretty strict diet (which is hard to do, when I love baking all the time). But, it's been working and I'm well on my way to where I wanna be health-fit wise. 
Looked over Pinterest for awhile, but nothing easy was catching my eye. I decided to just go for basic crepes and do my first attempt at caramelizing[I hate spelling that word] some bananas. Bananas have been on my mind lately and I'm glad I incorporated them in this dessert (also a good brunch option). This batter made approximately 6 crepes--maybe more, since one of mine was really thick.
Crepes: Recipe we've had around for quite some time
Ingredients
4 eggs
1 1/3 cup of milk
2 Tbs butter, melted
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tbs granulated sugar
1/2 tsp salt
Directions
Whisk all ingredients together until smooth. Preheat the crepe pan/frying pan on medium with some butter or pam sprayed in the pan. Ladle a spoonful of batter in to the pan, use your wrist skills to spread out the batter throughout the pan. About two minutes and the crepe should be ready to go. As you cook more of these, it will come naturally and you'll be able to tell when they are ready. Use a spatula to slide around the edge to remove from the pan.

Caramelizing Bananas
3 Bananas
Sugar
Pan
Pam (or butter)
Slice Bananas (as shown above)
Flip each banana slice in sugar (granulated)
Place slices in preheated pan (medium, as shown above for crepes)
Turn after 4-5 minutes
Second side gets done quicker than the first (approx. 1-2 min)
***Keep in mind: Each stovetop is different. Cooking times may vary. You'll see a brown sauce under the bananas and you'll smell a sweet, amazing aroma when it's time to flip them. They do burn quick. Careful!
I sprinkled powdered sugar in each crepe, rolled them up and placed bananas on top. I sprinkled a little more powdered sugar on top.
ENJOY.
