How to Make Buckwheat Crepes With Apples

  1. In a blender or food processor, combine buckwheat flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, eggs, milk, and melted butter. Blend until completely smooth (about 1 minute).
  2. Heat a lightly oiled 7-inch crepe pan over medium-high heat.
  3. Pour 1/4 cup of batter into the hot pan, tilting to spread evenly into a thin crepe.
  4. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Loosen the edges with a spatula before flipping.
  5. Stack cooked crepes on a plate and keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter, adding more oil to the pan as needed.
  6. While crepes cook, prepare the apple filling: Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add sliced apples, cinnamon, sugar, and nutmeg. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 10-12 minutes, or until apples are tender.
  7. Stir in rum (if using) and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed.
  8. Spoon 1/4 of the apple filling onto each crepe, roll up, and dust with powdered sugar.
  9. Serve immediately with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
