How to Make Cannelloni Crepes

  1. **Make the Crepes:** In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 large eggs, 1 cup milk, 1/4 cup water, 1 tablespoon melted butter, and a pinch of salt until smooth and lump-free.
  2. Heat a lightly oiled 8-inch nonstick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat.
  3. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet, tilting to spread into a thin 5-inch circle.
  4. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side, or until lightly golden and set. Do not brown.
  5. Stack cooked crepes on a plate or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  6. **Prepare the Filling:** In a medium bowl, combine 15 ounces ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1 large egg, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Mix well.
  7. **Assemble and Bake:** Spread a thin layer of the ricotta mixture onto each crepe. Roll up tightly and place seam-down in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  8. Pour one (24-ounce) jar of your favorite spaghetti sauce over the crepes.
  9. Sprinkle generously with additional Parmesan cheese.
  10. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 30 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
