Cinnamon Crepes Recipes

YUMMY APPLE CINNAMON CREPES

Steps:

• Whisk eggs and salt together in a bowl. Gradually stir flour into eggs, alternately with 2 cups milk until fully incorporated. Beat 1/4 cup vegetable oil and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon into flour mixture. Refrigerate batter for at least 1 hour.
• Mix apples, sugar, 2 teaspoons cinnamon, and 2 tablespoons water in a pot.
• Whisk cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl; pour into apple mixture.
• Simmer apple mixture over medium heat, stirring often, until thickened, 8 to 10 minutes. Keep warm.
• Whisk 1 1/2 tablespoons milk into chilled batter.
• Heat about 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in a crepe or frying pan over medium heat. Pour about 1/3 cup batter into the heated oil; tip and rotate the crepe pan until the batter covers the entire area. Cook until the edges begin to curl away from the sides of the pan, about 30 seconds; flip the crepe and continue cooking until lightly golden on the other side, about 30 more seconds. Remove crepe from pan, add more oil, and repeat with remaining batter.
• Spoon the apple filling into each crepe; fold crepe over the filling and serve.

CINNAMON ROLL CREPES

Steps:

• For the crepes: Combine the milk, flour, granulated sugar, salt, eggs and 2 tablespoons of the butter in a blender and blend until smooth, about 20 seconds. Let the batter rest at room temperature for at least 15 minutes before using or transfer to a container with a lid and let rest in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.
• For the cinnamon rum sauce: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar, rum and cinnamon and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar melts. Stir in 2 tablespoons water and cook a few more minutes. Set aside and keep warm.
• For the filling: Combine the cream cheese, cream, confectioners' sugar, vanilla and orange zest in a stand mixer with a whisk attachment and whisk until light and fluffy.
• Heat a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Lightly brush with some of the remaining melted butter. Add 3 to 4 tablespoons of the crepe batter and swirl the skillet so the batter completely covers the bottom. Cook until the underside of the crepe is golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Loosen the edge of the crepe with a rubber spatula, then with your fingertips, quickly flip. Cook 1 minute more. Slide the crepe out of the skillet and repeat with the remaining batter, coating the skillet with butter as needed. Stack the finished crepes directly on top of each other.
• Place a crepe on a flat surface with the browner side down. Smear 3 to 4 tablespoons filling across the crepe slightly off center and a few inches from the bottom (facing you), fold the bottom up over the filling and then roll the crepe tightly. Place seam-side down on a plate or platter and repeat with the remaining crepes and filling. Spoon the sauce over the crepes, dust with confectioners' sugar and scatter some orange zest on top. Serve immediately.

BASIC CREPES

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and the eggs. Gradually add in the milk and water, stirring to combine. Add the salt and butter; beat until smooth.
• Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each crepe. Tilt the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly.
• Cook the crepe for about 2 minutes, until the bottom is light brown. Loosen with a spatula, turn and cook the other side. Serve hot.

CINNAMON CREPES

Steps:

• Combine flour and next 7 ingredients (through eggs) in a food processor, and process until smooth.
• Pour batter into a bowl; cover and chill for at least 1 hour or up to 12 hours.
• Heat an 8-inch crepe pan or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
• Coat pan with cooking spray; remove pan from heat.
• Pour a scant 1/4 cup batter into pan; quickly tilt pan in all directions so batter covers pan with a thin film.
• Cook 1 minute or until surface of crepe begins to look dry.
• Carefully lift edge of crepe with a spatula to test for doneness.
• Turn crepe over when it can be shaken loose from pan and the underside is lightly browned; cook crepe 20 seconds on the other side.
• Place crepe on a towel, and cool.
• Repeat the procedure until all of the batter is used, for a total of eight crepes.
• Stack the crepes between single layers of wax paper or paper towels to prevent them from sticking.
• These can be refrigerated for 5 days or frozen for a month.

CARAMEL-CINNAMON CREPE CAKE

Steps:

• For the caramels: Preheat the oven to 350° F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat.
• Reserve 1/2 cup caramels for serving. Put 6 of the remaining caramels on the prepared baking sheet and bake until bubbly and slightly dark around the edges, about 5 minutes. Let cool completely on the baking sheet, then crush into a fine powder in a food processor; set aside.
• For the filling: Combine the remaining caramels with the milk, salt and 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar in a medium saucepan. Bring to just below a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until melted and smooth, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk the cornstarch, egg yolks and remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar in a large bowl until smooth. While continually whisking, slowly pour in about half of the milk mixture until combined. Transfer the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until thickened like pudding, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium bowl. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly on the surface, and refrigerate until chilled, 2 hours to overnight.
• For the crepes: Puree the milk, flour, granulated sugar, butter, vanilla, salt, cinnamon and eggs in a blender on high speed until well mixed. Let the batter rest in the blender for 1 hour at room temperature or refrigerate up to 24 hours.
• Before cooking, re-blend the batter on high speed for 30 seconds. Wipe 1/2 teaspoon butter on a medium crepe pan or 8-inch nonstick skillet in a very thin layer with a paper towel. Heat the pan over medium until hot.
• Ladle 3 tablespoons batter into the pan. Working quickly off the heat, swirl and shake the pan to evenly coat the bottom. Return to the heat and cook the crepe, reducing the heat if it's browning too quickly, until the edges are light golden, about 2 minutes. Carefully loosen the crepe from the pan and flip it with a spatula. Cook until a few brown spots appear, 15 to 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, wiping the pan with butter each time. Stack the crepes on the plate as you go (you should have about 20). Let them cool for 10 minutes before filling.
• Finish the filling: Beat the heavy cream and confectioners' sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes. Stir one-quarter of the cream mixture into the caramel filling, then gently fold in the rest.
• Put 1 crepe on a platter and top with a 1/4 cup filling, spreading it to the edge. Repeat, stacking the remaining crepes and filling, and ending with a crepe. Refrigerate overnight.
• Microwave the reserved 1/2 cup caramels, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted, about 1 minute. Top the cake with whipped cream, drizzle with the melted caramel and sprinkle with the caramel powder.

CINNAMON APPLE CREPES

Steps:

• In a medium/large mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, flour, and salt. Mix until you get a creamy mixture; without any bumps or flaws on the surface.
• Heat a frying pan over medium high heat. When the pan is hot, add a small amount of butter (a teaspoon) and lightly spread it across the surface of the pan.
• Pour about a cup of the batter into the pan and spread it slowly across the pan's surface. Try to even it out as best as you can.
• After the course of two minutes, use a spatula to check the bottom of the crepe. Do not do it too early on, to avoid any dysfuction in the cooking. If you do, it may mess the structure of the thin crepe.
• After the side browns, lightly tip it over to cook the other side. Repeat the previous step, and then transfer to a plate or a platter to add the cinnamon and sugar.
• Slice the apples into somewhat thin layers, then place on the skillet. Add cinnamon as they are cooking to bring out the sweet and unique flavor. Cook them until they are somewhat brown or a dark yellow.
• Add a bit of sugar to the mixture then let them sit for a second or two to let the sugar sink inches.
• Transfer the apples to another plate.
• Tint the surface of the crepe with a bit of cinnamon and sugar. Use as much as you prefer.
• Add your favorite jelly of however much you want. Be careful not to add too much, as when you roll it up it may tear the surface.
• Lay in the cooked apples onto the surface. Be sure to keep them them towards the center to make it easy to curl up.
• Curl up the crepe slowly and carefully. Be careful not to rip them, they're very thin.
• Top it with a bit more cinnamon and sugar, then finish it with a bit of whipped cream.
