La Banane Dorée

Slice the banana thin enough to read the paper through. Nearly.

Tante Maëlle's note

How to make it

  1. Pour wheat batter and spread it thin.
  2. Cook it golden on both sides, unless the guest asks otherwise (that is how the notebook recommends it).
  3. Melt the salted butter.
  4. Place the banana: usually 4 pieces.
  5. Fold it: Roll. One long swipe across.

Price and cost

It sells for 5,00 €. At the usual helpings it costs about 0,95 € to make (0,40 € of batter and 0,55 € of fillings), before any discount and less for home-grown fillings. Mastery stamps and the market's charm cards raise the price; see mastery.

The notebook page

The page is in the notebook from the very first day.

It belongs to the set Les Classiques, worth 2 pearls once every crêpe in it has been served really well.

Who loves it

How guests ask for it

"Something I can eat with one hand at a red light. Fuel fruit, the bendy one, plus butter. Rolled, so it fits the bottle cage."

— Théo

"Banana coins and butter, rolled like a sleeping bag. Not too cooked, I have a wobbly tooth."

— Capucine (pale and soft)

"I would like the 'beurre' and the... (flips pages) 'yellow smile fruit'. Made like a rolled-up map, please."
