How to Make Crepe Bombs

  1. **Crepes:**
  2. Crack 2 large eggs into a blender and pulse a few times to break them up.
  3. Add 1 cup milk, 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, 1 cup all-purpose flour, and a pinch of salt. Blend until completely smooth.
  4. Heat an 8-inch nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat.
  5. Lightly grease the pan with oil using a paper towel.
  6. Pour 1/4 cup of batter into the hot pan and swirl quickly to coat the bottom evenly.
  7. Cook for 2 minutes, or until the edges begin to set and the top is no longer wet.
  8. Gently loosen the edges with a spatula and flip the crepe.
  9. Cook for 1 minute on the other side.
  10. Repeat steps 4-8 with the remaining batter, greasing the pan lightly before each crepe.
  11. Stack the cooked crepes and separate them with wax paper to prevent sticking.
  12. **Sauce:**
  13. Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat for 2 minutes.
  14. Add 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1 tablespoon orange zest, and 1/4 cup orange juice.
  15. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved and the sauce slightly thickens.
  16. **To Assemble:** Fold each crepe into quarters. Arrange 2 on each plate. Spoon the warm orange sauce generously over the crepes.
  17. **Crepe Bomb Option:** Bunch the edges of a crepe together to create a ‘bomb’ shape. Pour the sauce inside, then enjoy!
