Crepes with Strawberries and Whipped Cream

Crepes with Strawberries and Whipped Cream

Ingredients

1 cup Milk

2 Eggs

2 tablespoons Sugar

1 cup Flour

3 tablespoons Butter, melted

½ teaspoon Salt

Strawberries, hulled and sliced

1 cup Heavy Cream

2 heaping tablespoons Powdered Sugar (more or less, depending on how sweet you want it)

2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract

Directions

Note: crepe batter needs to rest for at least an hour…so plan ahead.

Place all crepe batter ingredients in a blender (milk thru salt). Blend until smooth.

Let rest for at least one hour.

Place medium size non stick skillet over medium high heat. Melt a small amount of butter in skillet. When skillet is hot and butter is melted, spread about ¼ cup of batter in skillet, tilting to spread batter evenly around skillet. Cook until golden, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Flip and cook an additional 30-45 seconds. Repeat until batter is gone.

Pour heavy cream in mixing bowl. Start mixing on low speed, slowly increasing speed. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Whip to desired consistency.

Place crepe on plate. Spoon some whipped cream onto ¼ of crepe. Add sliced strawberries. Fold crepe in ½ and in ½ again. Top with whipped cream and additional strawberries.

You could also spoon the whipped cream down the center, add strawberries and roll the crepe up.  

The Verdict

Whipped cream, fresh picked strawberries, crepes…what’s not to like? And, according to the girls I am the best whipped cream maker on the planet J
