GLUTEN-FREE BUTTER CREPES WITH ORANGE BLOSSOM HONEY BUTTER

Steps:

• Whisk eggs, salt and milk together in a mixing bowl. While whisking, add the flour 1/4 cup at a time, making sure it is well combined before adding the next. Stir in 1/4 cup melted butter.
• In a separate bowl, mix 6 tablespoons softened butter, honey and orange zest together. Whip until creamy and smooth.
• Heat a 10-inch crepe pan over medium heat. When hot, add 1/2 teaspoon butter to the pan and spread around with a brush to cover the whole pan. If your pan is non-stick, you will only need to do this once. If your pan is not non-stick you may need to repeat this more often.
• Whisk the batter well, add 1/3 cup of batter to the heated pan; swirl it around to cover the entire surface of the pan. Cook until the edges brown and the crepe moves freely, about 2 minutes.
• Flip the crepe over and cook until evenly cooked. Remove from the pan and continue with the rest of the batter.
• Place a crepe on a warm plate. Spread 1 1/2 tablespoons filling evenly over one half of the crepe. Fold the crepe twice making a triangle. Do the same with the rest of the crepes. Top with remaining honey butter and serve.

HAM AND SWISS CREPES (WITH HONEY MUSTARD SAUCE)

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• 2. FOR THE WHITE SAUCE: Melt the butter and add the flour. Stir vigorously to make a paste. Add milk all at once, stirring continuously. Stir until the sauce has thickened. Remove form heat.
• 3. Grate and grind the ham,carrot and swiss cheese. ( I use a grinder attachment for my kitchen aid, which I love!) You can also use a food processor. Add to the white sauce, and mix until completely blended.
• 4. FOR THE CREPES: Add all crepe ingredients and mix until well blended and smooth. If bubbles appear, let rest while preparing the filling. Butter a small frying pan. Spoon in the batter, about 2 tablespoons at a time, to the heated,buttered pan. Tilt the pan, swirling the batter evenly to make a circle about 7 inches in diameter. Let cook over medium/low heat, until edges appear dry, and slightly browned. Turn crepe over, and heat the other side for an additional minute to set. Use all batter, making one crepe at a time, set aside. (makes about 10 7 inch crepes)
• 5. Place about 1/4 cup (more or less) in the middle of each crepe and roll like a cigar. Place seam side down in a baking dish. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, and bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes.
• 6. Serve with Honey Mustard sauce, drizzled over each crepe. My honey mustard sauce: https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/main-course/chicken/honey-mustard-sauce.html

HONEY-GINGER PINEAPPLE CRêPES

Steps:

Holding skillet off heat, pour in 1/4 cup batter, immediately swirling and tilting skillet to create a thin, even layer. Return skillet to heat and cook until crêpe is golden around edges and dry in center, about 45 seconds. Flip crêpe carefully and cook until golden, about 15 seconds. Transfer to a platter and keep warm, covered. Make more crêpes in same manner.

HONEY-WHEAT CREPES WITH SWEET RICOTTA AND FIGS

Steps:

• Combine the water, orange slices, Grand Marnier, honey, and sugar in a pot and place over medium heat. Add the figs and cook, stirring occasionally, until they reconstitute and the syrup thickens, about 25 minutes.
• While the figs cook, make the crepes as directed on page 105.
• Stir the ricotta cheese, confectioners' sugar, cinnamon, and egg together in a medium bowl until the mixture smoothes out.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F. Forming the crepes for this recipe is kind of like making burritos. Spoon 1/4 cup of the ricotta filling along the lower third of the crepe. Fold the bottom edge away from you to just cover the filling, then fold the 2 sides in to the center. Roll the crepe away from you a couple of times to make a package, ending with the seam side down. Put an ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Brush with melted butter. Pan-fry the filled crepes for 2 minutes per side, until crisp and golden. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 10 minutes so the egg in the ricotta filling cooks slightly and the cheese sets. Using a spatula, transfer the crepes to a serving plate.
• Spoon the figs and oranges with their syrup over the crepes and around the plate. Garnish with fresh mint and wait for the oohs and aahs from your guests.
