Make Crepe Batter

  1. In a small pan on medium heat, melt 3 tbsp butter.  Butter will melt and bubble then calm down.  It will turn brown after 5-6 minutes and produce a nutty aroma.  Be very cautious as not to let it burn.  As soon as it turns brown, remove from heat & let cool.
  2. Add to a blender – milk, water, eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, melted brown butter
  3. Add flour, salt, sugar
  4. Blend until well combined and smooth.  Transfer to bowl.  Cover & refrigerate 30 minutes

  2. Cook mixture for a few minutes until apples get soft yet maintain their shape.  Remove from heat & set aside

Make the Crepes

  1. Heat a non-stick skillet on medium.  Spray with non-stick spray
  2. Pour around 1/3c batter in center and immediately swirl the pan to spread batter evenly
  3. Cook for a minute or so and flip crepe once bubbles form on top.  Cook other side for another minute.  Remove from pan
  4. Repeat process until batter is gone

Make Cinnamon Whipped Cream

  1. Place bowl AND whisk attachment in refrigerator 15-20 minutes before making whip cream
  2. Beat heavy cream with whisk on stand mixer (or hand mixer) until soft peaks form
  3. Add sugar, cinnamon, vanilla and beat again until the cream forms stiff peaks.  Set aside
