Good Eats: Paleo Banana & Strawberry Crepes

I finally did it!  I've been craving crepes so much lately, that I had to find a way to eat them without the guilt of all the powdered sugar and hazelnut spread (sugar heaven).  I cooked up some crepes today that are PALEO FRIENDLY! Woo hoo!  And they taste amazing, too!

Paleo Crepes
Ingredients for batter:
4 Eggs
1/2 Cup Almond Flour (Almond Meal will do just fine - it's actually what I used but I know Almond flour will give it more of a smoother texture)
2 teaspoons of honey
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
pinch of salt
1 teaspoon of olive oil (and no more than that)
1/4 cup measuring cup

Ingredients for filling:
Two large bananas (cut into slices)
5-6 strawberries (cut into slices)
Pinch of cinnamon
Honey (to drizzle)

Instructions:
In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs.  Continue beating the eggs while adding in the almond flour, honey, vanilla and pinch of salt.  Everything should be well blended.

Heat an 8 inch skillet on medium heat.  Add olive oil and using your 1/4 measuring cup, scoop out the batter and add it to the skillet.  Swirl the mixture around in the skillet so that there is a nice, even layer of batter.  Should take a minute or so to brown, and you can use your spatula to flip it to the other side.

Remove crepe from heat to a plate.   Add filling and close crepe like a burrito.  DONE!

Makes up to 8-10 crepes (but if you use a larger skillet, you will make half the size)

I didn't add oil to my first crepe (yikes) and got a browner bottom (far right - but it was very good)!  The next crepe I added WAY too much oil (hence, the lighter color - middle) and the last crepe was just right.  Play around with it until you get what you desire.  I also had batter left over, I so I will make the rest later.  It preserves well in the fridge.

Have you made crepes before?  What are your techniques for spreading the batter evenly?
