Fruit Crepes image

So I was going to make pancakes but then didn't feel like them. Then my fiance told me to make crepes. I was so excited that I already had the batter done and half cooked before I realized I didn't have anything to put in the crepes ... So to the pantry! All I had for fruit was apples, fruit cocktail and mandarin oranges ......

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 c all purpose flour
1 c milk
6 Tbsp melted butter
3 eggs
4 Tbsp granulated white sugar
1/4 tsp salt
favorite fruit (i used mandarin oranges for this one)
1/2 c confectioners' sugar (for dusting)
chocolate syrup, whipped cream, peanut butter, etc (for top)

Steps:

  • 1. In a blender or with a hand held mixer, mix flour, butter, sugar, eggs and salt until mixture is smooth. Add the milk 1/3 cup at a time until batter is a liquid consistency. Make sure blender has no lumps and set aside for 20 minutes.
  • 2. In a large skillet over low-medium heat (or if you have it, a crepe pan) melt a little butter. Add crepe batter 3 Tbsp at a time for each crepe. Tilt/swirl the pan until the bottom is coated.
  • 3. Cook for about 1 minute, until top is almost dry and is golden underneath. Loosen the edges and carefully slide a spatula under it, gently flipping it upside down onto the pan. Cook less than 20 seconds and remove from heat.
  • 4. In the center of each crepe, place your fruit and fold sides over the center. Drizzle, dollop or dust your topping and enjoy!
  • 5. My favorite way to have these is with strawberry slices and topped with whipped cream or with banana slices and peanut butter drizzle.
