1. Smoke the Bacon:
Set up your smoker at 250°F with a mild wood like apple or pecan. Smoke the bacon for 45 minutes to an hour until crispy. Let cool, then chop into small pieces.
2. Prepare the Crepe Batter:
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, water, melted butter, sugar, salt, and vanilla until smooth. Let the batter rest for 20–30 minutes to allow the flour to fully hydrate.
3. Cook the Crepes:
Heat a lightly buttered cast-iron skillet or flat griddle over medium heat. Pour about ¼ cup of batter into the pan, swirling it around to spread thinly. Cook for about 1 minute per side, flipping once the edges start to lift. Stack on a plate and keep warm.
4. Make the Banana Maple Bacon Filling:
In a bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Stir in the maple syrup, cinnamon, salt, and chopped smoked bacon.
5. Make the Bourbon Maple Glaze:
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the maple syrup, bourbon (if using), butter, and smoked salt. Simmer for 3–5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
6. Assemble & Serve:
Spread the banana maple bacon filling inside each crepe, roll or fold them, and drizzle generously with the bourbon maple glaze. Top with extra chopped smoked bacon and a dusting of powdered sugar if desired.
