Crepes with a Luscious Filling
Ingredients
Crepes:
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 2/3-cup milk and 2/3-cup cold water, together
- 3 large eggs
- 1/4 teaspoon salt, optional
- Butter for pan
Filling:
- 1 1/2 cups thick plain yogurt, place 2 cups yogurt in a sieve and let stand for one hour. 2 tablespoons confectionary sugar
- 2 tablespoons Welch's strawberry jam
- 1 cup strawberries sliced
- 1 ripe banana cut in half-length wise and thinly sliced, crosswise
- 1/4 cup semi sweet chocolate shavings
Preparation
Crepes:
- Place flour into a bowl and whisk in milk and water to make a smooth blend, avoiding lumps from forming.
- Whisk in eggs and add salt if using. Let batter rest for up to an hour.
- Heat crepe pan until drops of water sizzle, brush with melted butter.
- Pour ¼ cup of crepe batter into center of hot pan and tilt it in all directions.
- After 30 seconds the bottom of the crepe should be lightly browned - lift an edge with a spatula to see. Shake the pan gently to dislodge the crepe, and then turn it over using a spatula for assistance.
- Cook 15 to 20 seconds longer. Remove.
Filling:
- In a bowl mix yogurt with sugar and set aside.
- Heat jam in saucepan, add strawberries and banana and cook for about 1 minute. Fruit should be soft but not too mushy.
- Spoon yogurt onto crepe, spoon fruit mixture over and sprinkle with chocolate shavings. Fold crepe over and dust with confectionary sugar. Garnish with slices of strawberries slices and banana.
