Easy Strawberry Crepes

April 17, 2023
Crepes are thin, delicate, and tasty like a pancake. You can top them with fresh fruit, jelly, chocolate, or even cream cheese. This delicious recipe is good for any occasion.

 

 

 

 

Ingredients:

3 Eggs
1 1/2 cups Flour
1 cup Water
2 teaspoons Sugar
1/2 teaspoon Salt
4 tablespoons Melted butter

Strawberry sauce:

16 ounces Strawberries fresh or frozen
1/4 cup Sugar
1/4 cup Water

Directions:

  1. Beat eggs and flour together with a whisk or mixer.
  2. Slowly add in water so the mixture is smooth. Next, add sugar and salt, and melted butter. Mix well, to make sure the batter is as smooth as possible.
  3. Heat the skillet over medium-low heat and spray lightly with cooking spray. Pour out a small amount of batter and spread it around the pan by lifting the pan and gently tilting it to spread the batter around the bottom of the pan. You want the crepes to be thin.
  4. Lightly cook on each side. The crepe is ready to flip when the top starts to cook (similar to a pancake), and a spatula can slide under the crepe easily.
Strawberry Sauce:
  1. To make the strawberry sauce: Combine all ingredients in a saucepan and cook over medium until strawberries have softened. Cooking time will vary depending on the type of strawberries used (fresh or frozen).
  2. When strawberries have softened, crush them and stir to combine with sugar water. As the sauce thickens, continue stirring until the desired consistency is achieved.
  3. Fill the crepes with strawberry sauce or any other filling you like. You can use the crepe for both sweet and savory recipes.

Meet The Chef

At nine years old, Ben Gaffney asked if he could work alongside his father, a chef, at Congress Rotisserie in New Haven. The elder Gaffney put the boy to work washing dishes for two years, in the hope that it would discourage his interest in the restaurant business.

But a calling is a calling. Ben Gaffney has spent his life since then pursuing the wonders of food, bringing Middlefield along for the ride as chef at Lyman Orchards since 2017.
