Recipe:
Ingredients:
For the Crepes:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons melted butter (plus extra for the pan)
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Filling:
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (plus extra for dusting)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh strawberries (sliced)
Instructions:
- Make the Crepe Batter:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, eggs, milk, melted butter, sugar, salt, and vanilla until smooth. Alternatively, blend the ingredients in a blender for a lump-free batter. Cover and let it rest for 30 minutes.
- Cook the Crepes:
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease with butter.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan, swirling it around to coat the surface evenly.
- Cook for about 1-2 minutes until the edges start to lift and the bottom is golden. Flip and cook the other side for 30 seconds. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- Prepare the Whipped Cream:
- In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla until stiff peaks form.
- Assemble the Crepes:
- Lay a crepe flat, spread whipped cream down the center, and add a generous layer of sliced strawberries.
- Fold the edges of the crepe inward, leaving the center exposed to showcase the filling.
- Garnish and Serve:
- Top with additional whipped cream, strawberries, and a dusting of powdered sugar. Serve immediately and enjoy!
This delightful recipe combines a fluffy, creamy filling with fresh fruit for a treat that’s both refreshing and indulgent.
