Homemade Crepe Rolls Recipe

Ingredients:

For the Crepes:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup skim milk (or any milk of your choice)
  • Pinch of salt
  • Cooking spray or oil for greasing the pan

For Sweet Filling (Optional):

  • Fresh fruits (such as strawberries, bananas, or berries)
  • Greek yogurt
  • Honey or maple syrup
  • Cinnamon (optional)

For Savory Filling (Optional):

  • Grilled chicken or turkey slices
  • Crisp vegetables (such as spinach, bell peppers, or cucumber)
  • Light cream cheese or hummus

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Crepe Batter:

  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, and salt until smooth. Let the batter rest for about 10-15 minutes to allow it to thicken slightly.

2. Cook the Crepes:

  • Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with cooking spray or a small amount of oil.
  • Pour a small amount of the crepe batter into the center of the pan and immediately tilt the pan in a circular motion to spread the batter thinly and evenly across the bottom.
  • Cook the crepe for about 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and the bottom is lightly golden brown. Carefully flip the crepe and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side.
  • Repeat the process with the remaining batter, stacking the cooked crepes on a plate as you go.

3. Fill and Roll the Crepes:

  • Once all the crepes are cooked, it’s time to fill them with your desired ingredients.
  • For sweet crepe rolls, spread a thin layer of Greek yogurt onto each crepe, then add slices of fresh fruit and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup. Sprinkle with cinnamon if desired.
  • For savory crepe rolls, spread a thin layer of light cream cheese or hummus onto each crepe, then add slices of grilled chicken or turkey and your choice of crisp vegetables.
  • Roll up the filled crepes tightly, tucking in the sides as you go to prevent the filling from spilling out.

4. Serve and Enjoy:

  • Arrange the filled crepe rolls on a serving platter.
  • If desired, garnish the sweet crepe rolls with additional fruit slices and a dusting of powdered sugar, or sprinkle the savory crepe rolls with fresh herbs or grated Parmesan cheese.
  • Serve the crepe rolls as a delightful snack, light meal, or dessert option. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature, and savor the delicious combination of flavors with each bite.

Note: Feel free to customize the filling ingredients according to your preferences and dietary needs. Get creative with different combinations of fruits, proteins, and vegetables to create your own unique crepe rolls!
