Title: Peach Crepes
Categories: Blank
Yield: 8 Servings
FOR THE CREPES |
1/2 | c | All-purpose flour |
1 | | Egg, lg |
3 | tb | Amaretto-flavored nondairy creamer |
1/8 | ts | Ground nutmeg |
1 | ts | Pure vanilla extract |
| | Light vegetable oil cooking |
| | Spray |
FOR THE FILLING |
2 | c | Fresh orange juice |
2 | tb | Orange liqueur |
8 | | Peaches, peeled and thinly sliced |
1 | ts | Honey |
1 | ts | Ground cinnamon |
1 | ts | Orange zest |
Put the flour into a mixing bowl. Make a well in the center of the flour
and add the egg. While whisking, pour in the nondairy creamer and then the
skim milk. Continue to whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps,
then whisk in the nutmeg and vanilla. Cover the batter and set it aside
for 30 minutes. Prehead an 8-inch nonstick crepe pan or a small, heavy
nonstick frying pan for about 1 minute over medium-high heat. Spray it
twice with the vegetable oil. Spoon just enough batter into the pan to form
a thin layer over the bottom, about 3 tablespoons, and tilt the pan to
spread the batter evenly. Cook the crepe for 1 to 2 minutes, just until the
edge is firm and begins to separate from the bottom. Flip the crepe with a
spatula and cook for 1 to 2 minutes more on the other side, until golden
brown. Remove the crepe to a sheet of waxed paper. Continue the process,
stacking the cooked crepes on the waxed paper, until 8 crepes have been
made. For the filling, combine the orange juice, liqueur, peaches and honey
in a medium frying pan. Cook for about 10 minutes, until the liquid turns
thick and syrupy. To assemble, lay a crepe on an individual serving plate.
Mound 1/3 cup of the peach slices on the bottom half of each and flip the
top half over. Spoon a tablespoon of the peach syrup over each and dust
with cinnamon and orange zest.
