How to Make Manicotti
- **Make the Crepe Batter:** In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, salt, and melted butter until completely smooth. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- **Cook the Crepes:** Heat a 6-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Lightly brush the pan with olive oil. Pour 1/3 cup of batter into the hot pan, tilting to evenly coat the bottom. Cook for 1 minute per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Stack crepes, separating each with wax paper.
- **Prepare the Filling:** In a large bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, parsley, egg, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- **Assemble the Manicotti:** Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce in the bottom of a 13x9x2 inch baking dish. Place about 1/4 cup of the filling lengthwise down the center of each crepe. Roll up tightly and place seam-down in the prepared baking dish.
- **Bake:** Pour the remaining marinara sauce over the rolled crepes. Sprinkle generously with mozzarella cheese. Bake for 30-45 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbling and the cheese is melted and golden brown.
- **Serve:** Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your delicious homemade Manicotti!
