Ingredients for Apple Crepes

  • Eggs
  • Milk
  • Flour
  • Cognac
  • 2 tablespoons butter for sauteing apples, 1 tablespoon melted butter for crepes
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • Vanilla
  • Tapioca Pudding
  • 4 medium apples (about 2 pounds), peeled and sliced
  • Brandy
  • Cinnamon

How to Make Apple Crepes

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 large eggs, 1 cup milk, 1 tablespoon melted butter, and a pinch of salt until smooth.
  2. Heat a lightly oiled 8-inch nonstick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot surface and swirl to create a thin crepe.
  3. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter to yield 16-18 crepes.
  4. While crepes are cooking, prepare your apple pudding: Peel and slice 4 medium apples (about 2 pounds).
  5. In a large skillet, sauté apples with 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat for about 10 minutes, until softened.
  6. Add 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and a pinch of nutmeg to the apples. Stir to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
  7. In a separate bowl, prepare your pudding (use your favorite recipe or store-bought pudding, ensuring it's enough for 8 crepes).
  8. Gently combine the sautéed apples and the prepared pudding. Mix well and let cool completely in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  9. Just before serving, divide the apple pudding evenly among 8 crepes.
  10. Fold the crepes in half, then in half again to create a neat pocket.
  11. Serve immediately with a dollop of whipped cream and a dusting of powdered sugar.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
