Strawberry crepes are a delightful and versatile dish that are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or even dessert.

Paired with low-fat Greek yogurt, they provide a balanced and satisfying meal that the whole family will love.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole-grain wheat flour and all-purpose white wheat flour.
- Crack the eggs into the bowl and whisk them with the flour until smooth and slightly frothy.
- Gradually pour in the milk while continuously whisking to avoid lumps.
- Add the vanilla extract and mix until the batter is smooth and has no lumps. Set the batter aside to rest for about 15-20 minutes.
- While the batter rests, wash the strawberries, hull them, and slice them thinly.
- Set the strawberries aside; these will be used as a filling and topping for your crepes.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with a bit of oil or butter.
- Pour about ¼ cup of the batter into the center of the skillet. Tilt the skillet in a circular motion to spread the batter into a thin, even layer.
- Cook the crepe for about 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and the bottom turns a light golden brown.
- Carefully flip the crepe with a spatula and cook for another 1 minute on the other side.
- Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate and repeat the process with the remaining batter, making sure to grease the pan as needed.
- Once all the crepes are cooked, spread a thin layer of lowfat Greek yogurt over each crepe.
- Place a handful of sliced strawberries over the yogurt.
- Fold the crepe in half, and then in half again to form a triangle, or roll it up, depending on your preference.
- Repeat the process for all the crepes.
- Arrange the filled crepes on a serving platter.
- Optionally, garnish with a drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of powdered sugar for extra sweetness.
- Add a few more strawberry slices on top for a vibrant and fresh presentation.
- Serve your delicious strawberry crepes warm or at room temperature and enjoy!
Tips:
- Make sure to whisk the batter until smooth to avoid lumps.
- Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes to allow the flour to fully hydrate. This helps in achieving tender crepes.
- Use a non-stick pan to prevent the crepes from sticking. If using a regular pan, lightly grease it with butter or oil.
- Pour a small amount of batter into the pan and immediately swirl it around to create a thin, even layer.
- Cook the crepes over medium heat. High heat may cause them to burn quickly without cooking through.
- Flip the crepe once the edges start to lift and become lightly golden.
- Keep the cooked crepes warm in an oven set at low heat while you prepare the rest.
- Feel free to add a touch of sweetener to the yogurt if you prefer a sweeter filling.
- Garnish with extra strawberries or a sprinkle of powdered sugar for an added touch of elegance.
