Ingredients:

1 cup all-purpose white wheat flour
120g
2 cups milk (1% fat)
480g
3 eggs
150g
1 short spray cooking spray oil
0.30g
1/4 cup butter
54g
4 apples
640g
1/2 cup brown sugar
120g
1 tsp cinnamon
3g
1/2 cup light sour cream
120g

Instructions:

3. Cook Crepes:
- Pour a small amount of batter (about 1/4 cup) into the center of the pan.
- Quickly swirl the pan to spread the batter evenly into a thin layer.
- Cook for about 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and the bottom is golden brown.
- Flip the crepe using a spatula and cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute.
- Transfer the crepe to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, making sure to reapply the cooking spray as needed.
4. Keep Warm: Stack the cooked crepes and cover them with a clean kitchen towel to keep them warm until ready to serve.
2. Add Apples: Add the sliced apples to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes or until they begin to soften.
3. Caramelize: Sprinkle the brown sugar and cinnamon over the apples. Continue to cook, stirring gently, for another 5-7 minutes until the apples are tender and the sugar has melted into a golden caramel sauce.
2. Fold and Top: Fold the crepe over the filling into a half-moon shape, and then fold it again into a quarter. Alternatively, you can roll the crepe around the filling.
3. Serve: Serve the filled crepes with a dollop of light sour cream on top. Repeat for the remaining crepes and enjoy!

Tips:

- Prepare the batter in advance: Make the crepe batter ahead of time and let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to help the gluten relax and create smoother crepes.

- Use a non-stick pan: For easy flipping and non-stick results, use a non-stick pan or a well-seasoned cast-iron skillet. Ensure the pan is well-heated before adding the batter.

- Cook apples on medium heat: Ensure you caramelise the apples on medium heat to avoid burning the sugar and to allow the apples to cook evenly and become tender.

- Consistency of batter: Your crepe batter should have a smooth, pourable consistency, similar to heavy cream. If it’s too thick, you can thin it out with a small amount of milk.

- Keep the crepes warm: Keep cooked crepes warm by stacking them on a plate and covering them with a clean kitchen towel. You can also keep them in a low-heat oven (around 200°F/90°C) until ready to serve.

- Experiment with toppings: While caramelised apples are delicious, feel free to experiment with other fillings and toppings such as whipped cream, chocolate sauce, or fresh berries for added variety.

Crepes with caramelised apples are a perfect blend of textures and flavors that create a satisfying and elegant dish. This recipe shows that with simple, everyday ingredients, you can create a delightful treat that's sure to impress. Serve these crepes at breakfast, brunch, or as a dessert, and enjoy the smiles on your guests' faces as they savor every bite.
