How to Make Crepes Basket With Blueberry And Orange

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 2 large egg whites, 1 cup milk, and 2 tablespoons orange juice until smooth and bubbly.
  3. Lightly grease a 7-8 inch non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat.
  4. Pour 1/4 cup batter onto the hot pan, swirling to create a thin crepe.
  5. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter to make 6-8 crepes.
  6. Invert six small oven-safe bowls or ramekins onto a baking sheet. Drape one crepe over each bowl, gently pressing it to fit the shape.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crepes are crisp and set.
  8. Carefully remove the crepe baskets from the bowls.
  9. Zest one orange, removing only the colored part of the peel. Cut zest into thin strips.
  10. Blanch orange zest in boiling water for 30 seconds; rinse with cold water and set aside.
  11. Peel and segment two oranges, reserving the juice.
  12. Gently combine orange segments, 1 cup blueberries (or other berries), and reserved orange juice in a saucepan. Warm over low heat for 5 minutes.
  13. Spoon the warm fruit compote into the crepe baskets.
  14. Garnish with blanched orange zest.
  15. Serve immediately with a dollop of plain yogurt, light crème fraîche, or nonfat sour cream.
