Best Strawberry Ricotta Crepes Recipes

STRAWBERRY RICOTTA CREPES

Steps:

• For the crepes batter: Stir the flour, sugar and salt together in a medium bowl. Combine the milk, water, eggs and melted butter in a blender. Blend until smooth. Add the flour mixture. Blend just until smooth, scraping down the sides of the blender carafe. Let the batter rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes, if time allows.
• For the filling: Combine the sliced strawberries and 2 tablespoons of honey in a medium bowl. Refrigerate 30 minutes, if time allows.
• Beat the drained fresh ricotta with the remaining 3 tablespoons honey, mint and lemon zest in a medium bowl with a wooden spoon until light and smooth.
• Heat a nonstick crepe pan or large nonstick saute pan over a medium flame. Spray with the cooking spray. Ladle about 2 ounces of the crepe batter into the center of the pan and swirl. When the center begins to set, flip with a spatula and continue cooking until lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining crepe batter (it will make 8 to 10 crepes).
• Fill the crepes with the ricotta mixture and roll up. Spoon the strawberries over the crepes. Dust with the confectioners' sugar.

STRAWBERRY-FILLED RICOTTA CREPES

Steps:

• Combine milk, flour, ricotta cheese, eggs, sugar, vanilla, salt, and almond extract in a blender; process until smooth. Let sit for 15 minutes, or cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or longer.
• Heat an 8-inch omelette pan over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes. Lightly spray the hot pan with nonstick spray and melt a little butter in it. Pour 1/3 cup batter into the hot pan. Wait a few seconds, then slowly tilt the pan in all directions until the bottom surface and part of the sides are coated. Cook until top surface is dry and the edges release easily with the tip of a pairing knife; this will happen quickly.
• Place 2 tablespoons sliced strawberries directly in the center of each crepe while still in the pan. Fold crepe into quarters and transfer to a plate to serve. Cook remaining batter the same way; be sure to stir the batter each time because it settles quickly.
