Apple Cheddar Crepes

On October 29, 2006 in Different Dinner Project, Recipes

1 cup flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1-1/2 cups milk
2 eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons butter

1 tablespoon butter
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1 clove
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 green apple, peeled and thinly sliced
4 ounces sharp cheddar, grated

1/2 cup water
1/2 cup sugar

  1. Combine flour, sugar and salt. Whisk in milk until smooth, then the eggs.
  2. Melt a portion of the butter in a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Pour a ladle full of batter into the center of the pan and gently swirl the pan to bring the batter to the edges.
  3. Wait for the batter to set slightly, forming small bubbles on top and lightly browning around the edges. Flip and lightly brown the other side, then transfer to a warmed plate in the oven. Repeat with remaining batter.
  4. Meanwhile, in a separate saucepan, melt remaining butter and add cinnamon, nutmeg, clove and brown sugar, stirring to combine.
  5. In another saucepan, bring water and sugar to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and, stirring occasionally, cook until the water has evaporated and sugar has caramelized into a thick syrup.
  6. When all crepes have been made, stir apples into the butter and brown sugar mixture and cook for about a minute. Assemble crepes by sprinkling a portion of the cheese in the center of the crepe and arranging a portion of the apple mixture over top. Fold in either sides and drizzle with caramel.
