Delicious Apple Cinnamon Crepes
Apple cinnamon crepes are a warm, sweet, and spiced breakfast or dessert dish made with soft crepes filled with cinnamon apples. Perfect for fall!
Ingredients
For the crepes:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/4 cups milk
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp melted butter
For the apple cinnamon filling:
- 2 medium apples (peeled, cored, and sliced)
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg (optional)
Optional toppings:
- Whipped cream
- Maple syrup
- Powdered sugar
Instructions
- Prepare the crepe batter: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir in the melted butter until smooth.
- Cook the crepes: Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray. Pour 1/4 cup of batter into the pan and swirl to coat the bottom evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side, or until lightly golden. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- Make the apple cinnamon filling: In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add the sliced apples and cook until soft, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg (if using). Continue to cook until the apples are tender and caramelized.
- Assemble the crepes: Place a crepe on a plate, spoon some of the apple cinnamon mixture into the center, and fold the crepe. You can also roll it up if preferred.
- Optional toppings: Serve with whipped cream, maple syrup, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
- Serve: Enjoy your delicious apple cinnamon crepes warm!
Notes
- For extra flavor, you can add a splash of vanilla extract or a pinch of salt to the apple filling.
- If you like a thicker filling, add a small amount of cornstarch mixed with water to the apples while cooking.
- To make this recipe gluten-free, use a gluten-free flour blend in place of all-purpose flour.
- You can store leftover crepes in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheat them before serving.
