Crepes

Cultural Context

Crepes originated in Brittany, France, where they were traditionally made with buckwheat flour. These thin pancakes are a staple of French cuisine, enjoyed both sweet and savory. Today, crepes are celebrated worldwide, often filled with a variety of ingredients, showcasing their versatility and appeal.

FRFRdessert
4 servings
Servings4
1 egg
¾ cup milk
2 tsp sugar
¼ tsp salt
1 Tbsp butter, melted and cooled
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 packed cup spinach
2 Tbsp heavy cream
½ cup shredded cheese blend (Quattro Formaggi from Trader Joe's)
butter for cooking
parsley or chives for garnish
1

Prepare a blender and add all ingredients: 1 egg, room temperature, ¾ cup milk, 2 tsp sugar, ¼ tsp salt, 1 Tbsp butter (melted and cooled), and ½ cup all-purpose flour.

2

Blend until combined and there are no lumps.

3

Let the batter sit for 30 minutes.

4

While the batter rests, make the filling: Melt butter over medium-low heat; use more butter than shown!

5

Add 1 packed cup of spinach and toss in the butter.

6

Add 2 Tbsp heavy cream and heat to simmer.

7

Add ½ cup of shredded cheese blend (Quattro Formaggi from Trader Joe's).

8

Lightly season with salt and pepper (you can skip the salt).

9

Stir to emulsify the cheese into a creamy sauce.

10

Heat the pan over medium heat and very lightly butter the pan.

11

Pour about ⅓ cup of batter into the center of the pan (for 8-inch crepe).

12

Quickly lift the pan off the heat and swirl it around to spread out the batter in a thin layer.

13

Return to the heat and cook until the edges start to look dry and peel away from the pan, about 1 minute.

14

When the bottom is lightly golden brown, flip it over and cook for another minute or less over medium-low heat.

15

Transfer to a flat surface and let cool.

16

Repeat with the remaining batter; this batter makes about 6 medium sized crepes (8-inch).

17

Lay a warm crepe on a plate and add the filling in the middle.

18

Top with a fried egg (optional).

19

Fold the edges over towards the center to form a square.

20

Garnish with parsley or chives.
