Instructions
Crepes
- Make batter. In a blender, blend 2 cups milk, 4 large eggs, 3 Tablespoons melted butter, 1 Tablespoon sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1 1/2 cups flour 15 to 20 seconds, or until batter is smooth. Chill 15 to 30 minutes, or overnight.
- Cook crepes. Spray nonstick cooking spray onto an 8-inch frying pan. Pour about 1/4 cup batter into the pan and cook over medium-low heat. Turn pan immediately from side to side to form an even circle. Cook for about 1 to 2 minutes per side, or until lightly browned. Remove from heat and place on a baking sheet in the oven at 175°F until ready to serve.
Apple filling
- Make apple filling. Melt 4 Tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. In a medium bowl, combine 4 diced apples, 1/4 cup brown sugar and 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon. Stir until coated. Then add to the skillet. Reduce heat to low and cook for 5 to 10 minutes, or until fork tender.
- Assemble crepes. On a flat crepe, spoon apple filling in the center and roll up the sides of the crepe. Top with additional apples, whipped cream, and cinnamon, if desired.
