Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In another bowl, lightly whisk the 2 egg yolks.
- Add in the 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 1/2 cup of milk. Whisk until well combined.
- Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients, whisking constantly until you obtain a smooth batter. Ensure there are no lumps.
- Cover the bowl and let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes. This helps the flour fully absorb the liquids and results in more tender crepes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the 2 egg yolks with the 1 teaspoon of corn flour until smooth and there are no lumps.
- Slowly pour a few tablespoons of the hot cream mixture into the egg yolk mixture to temper it, whisking constantly so that the eggs do not scramble.
- Pour the tempered egg mixture back into the saucepan with the rest of the cream, continuing to whisk constantly.
- Reduce the heat to low and add the finely chopped white chocolate to the mixture.
- Stir continuously until the white chocolate is completely melted and the custard thickens. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
- Remove the custard from heat and let it cool slightly.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan, swirling the pan immediately to spread the batter evenly into a thin layer.
- Cook for about 1-2 minutes until the edges start to lift and the bottom is slightly golden.
- Flip the crepe and cook for an additional 30 seconds on the other side.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the cooked crepes on a plate.
- Optionally, dust the crepes with powdered sugar, drizzle with chocolate sauce, or add fresh berries on top.
- Serve immediately while still warm and enjoy!
Tips:
- Ensure the batter is smooth: Blend the crepe batter thoroughly to avoid lumps and to achieve a smooth, uniform consistency.
- Rest the batter: Let the crepe batter rest for at least 30 minutes to allow the gluten to relax, resulting in more tender crepes.
- Use a non-stick pan: A non-stick pan helps prevent the crepes from sticking and makes flipping them easier. If you don’t have a non-stick pan, make sure to grease your pan well with oil or butter.
- Cook over moderate heat: Cooking the crepes over moderate heat ensures they cook evenly without burning. Keep a close eye on them as they cook quickly.
- Whisk custard continuously: While making the white chocolate custard, continuously whisk to prevent the mixture from curdling and to achieve a smooth texture.
- Chill the custard: After preparing the custard, let it chill in the refrigerator for a firmer texture that holds well when used as a crepe filling.
Your delicate crepes with luscious white chocolate custard are now ready to be served. This dessert is not only visually appealing but also incredibly satisfying to your taste buds. Enjoy this treat with a sprinkle of powdered sugar or a dollop of whipped cream.
