Cinnamon Crepes Recipes

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.

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.
