How to Make Basic Cannelloni Crepes
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, olive oil, and salt until smooth.
- Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes. This allows the gluten to relax, resulting in more tender crepes.
- Heat a lightly oiled 8-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet, tilting to spread evenly into a thin circle.
- Cook for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Stack the cooked crepes on a plate.
- While the crepes cook, prepare the filling: Brown the ground beef in a pan over medium-high heat. Drain excess fat.
- Add the onion and cook until softened. Stir in the crushed tomatoes, oregano, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Simmer for 15-20 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken.
- Spread a spoonful of the beef filling onto each crepe.
- Roll up the crepes tightly.
- Place the filled crepes in a greased baking dish.
- Top with shredded mozzarella cheese (optional).
- Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes, or until heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
