How to Make Cinnamon Crepes

  1. In a food processor, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 2 large eggs, 1 1/2 cups milk, and 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter. Process until completely smooth.
  2. Pour the batter into a bowl, cover, and chill for at least 1 hour, or up to 12 hours in the refrigerator for best results.
  3. Heat an 8-inch nonstick crepe pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly coat the pan with cooking spray.
  4. Reduce heat to medium. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot pan, tilting the pan quickly to spread the batter into a thin, even layer.
  5. Cook for 1 minute, or until the edges begin to set and the surface looks slightly dry.
  6. Carefully lift an edge with a spatula to check for doneness. When the crepe releases easily from the pan and the underside is lightly browned, gently flip it.
  7. Cook for 20 seconds on the other side.
  8. Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate or clean kitchen towel to cool. Repeat with the remaining batter, making a total of 8 crepes.
  9. Stack the crepes between sheets of wax paper or parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  10. Fill with your choice of cooked apples, pears, or a mixture of berries. Serve immediately or chill for later.
