Berries & Cream Blender Crepes
Ingredients:
1 1/2 c. whole milk or half & half
2 tbsp. unsalted butter, melted
3/4 tsp. vanilla extract
3 eggs
1 c. all-purpose flour
2 tsp. granulated sugar
1/4 tsp. kosher sea salt
For the topping:
2 c. fresh or frozen mixed berries
3 tbsp. granulated sugar (1/4 c. if you prefer it on the sweeter side)
3 tbsp. water
2 tsp. fresh lemon juice
powdered sugar (optional)
For the filling:
1 c. whipped cream
2 tbsp. powdered sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
Directions:
- In the jar of a blender, add the milk, melted butter, vanilla, eggs, flour, sugar, and salt. Blend on low until well combined, about 15 seconds. Place in the refrigerator to chill for 30 minutes.
- Just before the batter is ready to be used, in a small saucepan set over medium heat, combine the berries, sugar, water and lemon juice. Allow to simmer while the crepes are cooking. You can pour it through a mesh sieve if you prefer a seedless sauce.
- Place a 10-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat (or slightly higher). Stir the batter, then butter the pan.
- Remove the pan from the heat, pour 1/4 cup of the batter into pan, and swirl in circular motion to evenly coat the bottom of the pan with batter.
- Cook until golden brown on bottom, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the crepe and continue cooking for 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and allow to cool.
- Repeat until all of the batter has been used.
- To prepare the whipped cream, in a large mixing bowl (with a hand mixer) or the bowl of a stand mixer, whip the cream, powdered sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form.
- Roll or fold the crepes and fill with whipped cream. Top with berry sauce and powdered sugar, if desired.
