Ingredients
Scale
Crepe Batter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Butter or oil for frying (as needed)
Filling
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare the batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, eggs, milk, melted butter, sugar, and salt until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. This ensures light and tender crepes.
- Heat the skillet: Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil to prevent sticking and to give the crepes a golden finish.
- Cook the crepes: Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet and swirl it around evenly to form a thin layer. Cook the crepe for about 1 to 2 minutes until the edges begin to lift from the pan.
- Flip the crepes: Carefully flip the crepe and cook the other side for approximately 1 minute until lightly golden. Repeat this process with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed.
- Prepare the filling: In a separate bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, fresh blueberries, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly until the filling is creamy and well blended.
- Assemble and serve: Spoon the blueberry cream cheese mixture onto each crepe, fold them neatly, and serve warm. Enjoy the harmonious blend of creamy and fruity flavors.
Notes
- For thinner crepes, add a little more milk to the batter to achieve desired consistency.
- Use fresh blueberries for the best flavor, or substitute with frozen blueberries if fresh are unavailable, thawed and drained.
- Crepes can be kept warm in a low oven (about 200°F or 90°C) until all are cooked and ready to be filled.
- Leftover crepes can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheated gently on a skillet.
