Ricotta and honey crepes are a delightful and elegant dish perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert. These crepes are light and fluffy, filled with a creamy ricotta mixture and sweetened with honey, making them a delicious treat for any occasion.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a medium bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, lemon zest, honey, and cinnamon until well combined.
- Set the filling aside while you prepare the crepe batter.
- In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, and egg until smooth and free of lumps.
- Let the batter rest for about 10 minutes. This will help the gluten relax and make the crepes more tender.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly coat with a short spray of cooking spray oil.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan and quickly swirl the pan 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 a light golden brown.
- Use a spatula to carefully flip the crepe and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side.
- Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, making sure to re-spray the pan with cooking spray as needed.
- Spoon a generous amount of the ricotta mixture onto one-half of each crepe.
- Fold the crepe in half over the filling, and then fold in half again to form a triangle.
- Repeat with the remaining crepes and filling.
- Arrange the filled crepes on a serving plate.
- Optionally, drizzle with additional honey and sprinkle with extra lemon zest for garnish.
- Serve immediately while warm and enjoy your delightful Ricotta and Honey Crepes!
Tips:
- Ensure the batter is smooth by whisking it thoroughly. This will help avoid any lumps and result in perfectly thin and even crepes.
- Letting the batter rest for at least 30 minutes before cooking can help improve the texture of the crepes.
- Use medium heat when cooking the crepes. Too high a temperature can cause them to burn before they are fully cooked.
- A non-stick pan can be very helpful to prevent the crepes from sticking and to make flipping them easier.
- Be patient and do not overfill the pan with batter. Tilt and swirl the pan to spread the batter evenly and create thin crepes.
- Keep the cooked crepes warm by stacking them on a plate and covering them with aluminum foil until all the batter is used.
Enjoy the delicate balance of flavors in these ricotta and honey crepes, a dish that combines creamy ricotta, zesty lemon, and sweet honey. Perfect for a special breakfast or a delightful dessert, these crepes are sure to impress.
