Chocolate-filled crepes are a delicious and indulgent treat perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert. Here’s a simple recipe to make them at home:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- Pinch of salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Butter or oil for cooking
- Chocolate hazelnut spread or your favorite chocolate spread
- Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
- Fresh berries or sliced bananas (optional, for serving)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Crepe Batter:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, melted butter, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract until smooth. You can also use a blender for a smoother batter. Let the batter rest for about 15-30 minutes.
- Cook the Crepes:
- Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Add a small amount of butter or oil to the pan and swirl to coat the bottom evenly.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the center of the pan and quickly swirl the pan to spread the batter thinly and evenly.
- Cook the crepe for about 1-2 minutes until the edges start to lift slightly and the bottom is golden brown. Flip the crepe using a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side.
- Remove the cooked crepe from the pan and repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the cooked crepes on a plate.
- Fill the Crepes:
- Once all the crepes are cooked, spread a generous amount of chocolate hazelnut spread or chocolate spread of your choice over each crepe, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Fold and Serve:
- Fold each crepe into quarters or roll them up.
- Serve the chocolate-filled crepes warm, dusted with powdered sugar if desired, and accompanied by fresh berries or sliced bananas.
Enjoy your delicious homemade chocolate-filled crepes! They are sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
