Ricotta Crepes Recipe

Ricotta Crepes Recipe

Ingredients

2 cups  Flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 cups milk
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup butter, melted

Filling

1 cup Ricotta cheese
1 tbsp orange juice
1 tbsp orange zest
1 tbsp  maple syrup

Topping

almonds
chocolate sauce

Directions

Combine the flour, salt and sugar  in a medium-sized bowl. In another, smaller bowl,

beat together the milk, eggs, and vanilla. Make a well in the flour mixture and pour in

about half the liquid mixture.   Blend well, then add the remaining liquid and stir until

fairly smooth; a few lumps can remain. Stir in the butter. Cover and let sit for at least an hour.
. Heat the pan until it’s medium-hot. Wipe the bottom of the pan with a bit of butter or oil
Pour a scant 1/3 cup batter into the bottom of the pan, pick it up, and tip it in a circular motion

so the batter covers the bottom of the pan. Cook until the bottom begins to brown and you can

slide a spatula under it. It will hold together quite well, so you can flip it over easily.
Cook briefly on the other side, and place on a warm plate. Cover until the remaining batter

is cooked. Fill with fruit and whipped cream, sweetened cream cheese and berries,

or anything else from bananas and chocolate or caramel to ice cream and maple syrup.
Filling:

Mix together ricotta, orange juice, zest and your sweetener.

Roll filling into crepes, and top with almonds and  syrup or even chocolate sauce
