Categories     100+ Breakfast and Brunch Recipes     Crepes     Sweet

Time 1h30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup stale beer, room temperature
4 eggs, room temperature
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon salt
4 bananas, sliced 1/4-inch thick
1 lemon, juiced, or as needed
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
¼ cup brown sugar
1 cup whipped topping
1 cup white sugar
½ cup boiling water
3 tablespoons cornstarch
½ cup water
3 tablespoons butter
8 teaspoons vegetable oil, divided

Steps:

  • Whisk flour, beer, eggs, 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, nutmeg, and salt in a large bowl to form a smooth batter.
  • Toss bananas with enough lemon juice to coat in a separate bowl.
  • Beat the cream cheese and brown sugar together in a separate bowl until light and fluffy; fold whipped topping into cream cheese mixture to form the cheese filling. Set aside.
  • Heat white sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly, until melted and brown, 2 to 4 minutes. Remove sauce pan from heat and stir boiling water into melted sugar. Return to heat and stir until it forms a smooth and clear syrup.
  • Whisk cornstarch and 1/2 cup water together in a small bowl; add to syrup in saucepan. Simmer over low heat, stirring constantly, until thick and clear, 5 to 7 minutes. Whisk butter into syrup to form a caramel sauce.
  • Heat 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in an 8-inch crepe pan over medium heat. Pour about 1/4 cup crepe batter into heated oil. Tip and rotate the skillet until batter covers the entire area. Cook until the batter turns from wet to moist, and the edges begin to curl away from the sides of the skillet. Flip crepe and continue cooking until lightly golden on the other side. Place crepe onto a plate, and cover with a kitchen towel to keep moist. Repeat with remaining batter, lightly oiling the skillet as needed with 1 teaspoon vegetable oil each time to keep the crepes from sticking.
  • Assemble crepes by spreading about 2 tablespoons caramel sauce over each crepe. Spread 1/8 the cream cheese filling onto the caramel layer; top with 1/8 the bananas. Roll the crepe around the bananas and place seam-side down on a serving platter. Repeat with remaining crepes and ingredients. Drizzle remaining caramel sauce over crepes.

THE BEST CREPES



The Best Crepes image

Our classic crepe is versatile enough to go sweet or savory, just omit the vanilla if going the savory route. The rest time here is key; the flour absorbs the milk as it sits giving you a more tender crepe and golden color.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 8h30m

Yield 15 crepes

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups milk, at room temperature
4 large eggs, at room temperature
1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
Vegetable oil, for the pan

Steps:

  • Add the milk, eggs, flour, sugar, vanilla and salt to a blender. Puree on high speed until completely smooth and slightly thickened and creamy, about 1 minute. Add the melted butter and puree until incorporated, 30 seconds more. Let the batter rest in the blender carafe for at least 1 hour at room temperature or refrigerate up to 24 hours. The longer you allow the batter to rest and hydrate, the lighter and softer the texture of the crepes will be; overnight is ideal.
  • Before cooking, re-blend the batter at high speed for 30 seconds. This will reincorporate the ingredients, a vital step in getting an even golden color on the crepes. Wipe 1/2 teaspoon of oil on a large crepe pan or a 10-inch nonstick skillet with a paper towel. You don't want to see any drops of oil in the pan, just coat with the thinnest layer. Heat the pan over medium heat until hot.
  • Ladle 1/4 cup batter into the pan. Working quickly off the heat, swirl and shake the pan to evenly coat the bottom with the batter. Return to the heat and cook the crepe, reducing the heat if it's browning too quickly, until the edges are light golden, about 2 minutes. Slide a spatula underneath to loosen the crepe and carefully flip it over. Cook on the other side until a few brown spots appear, 15 to 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, wiping pan with oil each time. Stack the crepes on the plate as you go (you should have about 15 total). Let the crepes cool for 10 minutes before serving or filling.
  • For fillings, we suggest Nutella and bananas or peanut butter and jelly for sweet crepes. Ham and cheese makes a great filling for savory crepes.

BEER-BATTER CREPES



Beer-Batter Crepes image

This is a Rachael Ray recipe that I found in Everyday with Rachael Ray magazine. The batter must rest for at least an hour before they should be cooked, so keep that in mind! It can be used with both sweet and savory fillings such as sauteed spinach, shredded cheese and chopped deli ham, basil ricotta, sauteed mushrooms, nutella and sugar, or any flavored cream cheese. You can also substitute a nonalcoholic beer in place of the lager if you'd like.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 50m

Yield 24 crepes, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 large eggs, beaten
2 cups milk
2 cups lager beer (16 oz)
4 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
3 1/2 cups flour
2 pinches salt

Steps:

  • Melt 4 tbl butter. Whisk together eggs, milk, beer, and melted butter. Scatter the flour and salt over the mixture and whisk until smooth, about 2 minutes (batter should be the consistency of heavy cream). Cover the bowl and let the batter rest at room temperature for 1 hour at room temperature or refrigerate overnight.
  • In a small nonstick skillet, melt the remaining 1/2 tsp butter. Using a ladle, stir the batter and pour a scant 1/3 c into the pan, quickly rotating and tilting the pan to form a thin crepe. Cook the crepe until golden on the bottom, 1 to 2 minutes. Using a spatula, flip the crepe and cook for 30 to 60 seconds more. Remove from pan and place crepe on a plate. Cover the crepe with a towel to keep warm.
  • Repeat with remaining batter, each time stacking the crepes on the plate and covering them back up. After you have cooked the first few, you should only need to cook each crepe for about 30 seconds on each side.
  • When crepes are cooked, you can fill them with any number of fillings and roll them up jelly-roll style, burrito-style, or just fold them in half and then in half again so that they form a triangle.

EASY CREPES WITH BRANDY



Easy Crepes With Brandy image

This French crepe recipe calls for brandy, but you can substitute any flavorful spirit or liqueur to customize it to your tastes and pantry.

Provided by Judy Kagan

Time 45m

Yield Makes approximately 12-15 crepes

Number Of Ingredients 11

1½ cups whole milk
3 large eggs
3 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
Scant 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
½ cup brandy
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
Additional butter for cooking
Additional sugar or jelly such as apple or apricot for serving
Iron skillet or crepe pan, flexible metal or plastic spatula

Steps:

  • In a blender, combine milk and eggs. Mix on medium-high speed until foamy, about 10 seconds. Turn blender to low speed and remove feed top. With blender going, add sugar and salt. Replace feed top and blend on high speed for a few seconds, then turn blender back to low. In the same manner, add butter, brandy, and vanilla, replacing feed top and blending for several seconds after each addition. Turn blender off. Add flour all at once and blend until just combined.
  • Place crepe pan over moderately high heat. With flexible spatula, spread a tiny amount of butter in pan (an alternative method is to brush the pan with melted butter using a pastry brush) and heat until butter just begins to smoke. Pour ¼ to ⅓ cup batter into the center of the pan. As you pour, quickly tilt the pan in all directions to spread a thin layer of batter across the bottom. Pour in just enough batter to cover the pan.
  • Cook crepe over moderately high heat until bubbles just begin to form on the exposed surface, about one to two minutes. Lift up the edge to check the cooking process-if the crepe starts to burn before it is cooked through, turn down the heat. If it is not nicely browned after two minutes, turn up the heat.
  • When underside of crepe is browned, flip and cook another minute or less, until other side is browned. Remove from pan and keep warm in the oven, loosely covered with foil.
  • Grease pan with a very small amount of butter and repeat process. Continue until remaining batter is used, stacking cooked crepes on a plate in the oven. To serve, sprinkle each crepe with sugar or spread with jelly and fold or roll up. Do Ahead: Crepe batter can be made 1 day ahead. Refrigerate, covered, and blend briefly to recombine before cooking.

Tips:

  • Use cold beer. Cold beer helps to create a light and crispy batter.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the crepes tough.
  • Cook the crepes over medium heat. Medium heat will help to prevent the crepes from burning.
  • Flip the crepes carefully. Use a spatula to gently flip the crepes to avoid tearing them.
  • Serve the crepes immediately. Crepes are best served immediately after they are made, while they are still warm and crispy.

Conclusion:

Beer batter crepes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They can be filled with a variety of sweet or savory ingredients, making them a perfect option for any occasion. With a few simple tips, you can easily make perfect beer batter crepes at home.
