Strawberries and Cream Cheese Crepes
30 minutes prep time | Serves 2
What you need:
Basic Crepes:
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1/4 tsp salt
2 tablespoons butter, melted
Filling:
4 ounces fat-free cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons sifted powdered sugar plus 1 teaspoon for garnish
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
8 strawberries, hulled and sliced
2 prepackaged crepes, each about 8 inches in diameter
2 tablespoons caramel sauce, warmed
What you do:
Preheat the oven to 325 F. Lightly coat a baking dish with cooking spray.
Crepes:
- Mix the crepe ingredients together (easiest way is in a blender). Refrigerate the crepe mixture for at least 30 min.
- Heat a frying pan at medium high heat. Allow enough time for pan to heat through before pouring crepe mixture.
- Spray pan evenly with cooking oil. Pour 1/4 cup of crepe mixture in the pan. Tip and rotate the pan so the mixture is evenly distributed on the pan.
- Flip crepe and cook opposite side
- Place cooked crepe on plate and continue making the rest of the crepes
Filling:
- In a mixing bowl, blend the cream cheese until smooth using an electric mixer. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla. Mix well.
- Spread 1/2 of the cream cheese mixture on each crepe, leaving 1/2 inch around the edge. Top with 2 tablespoons strawberries. Roll up and place seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Bake until lightly browned, about 10 minutes.
- Transfer the crepes to individual serving plates. Top each with 1/2 teaspoon powdered sugar and 1 tablespoon caramel sauce. Serve immediately.
