Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup whole milk
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons lemon zest (about 2 lemons)
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup mascarpone cheese
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup chopped Marcona almonds
Blueberries
Lemon zest
Powdered sugar
Melted dark chocolate, optional

Steps:

  • For the lemon crepes: Whisk together the milk, eggs and vanilla in a medium bowl until smooth. Add the flour, sugar, salt and lemon zest and whisk until smooth. Set aside.
  • For the almond mascarpone filling: Combine the heavy cream, mascarpone, sugar and vanilla extract in a separate medium bowl. Using a handheld mixer, beat on medium until stiff peaks form, about 3 minutes. Fold in the chopped almonds.
  • Heat a medium saute pan over medium heat. Add a teaspoon of the butter and swirl the pan until the butter is melted and coats the pan (you can also use a pastry brush to brush softened butter into the pan). Add 1/4 cup of the batter and swirl the pan to coat the bottom with an even thin coating of batter. Cook for 2 minutes, gently flip the crepe and cook for another minute on the other side. Remove to a plate and continue with the remaining batter, adding more butter as needed.
  • To serve, place 1 heaping tablespoon almond mascarpone filling on one quarter of a crepe. Gently fold the crepe in half and then in half again making sort of a triangle. Serve 2 per plate, sprinkle with blueberries and dust with more lemon zest and powdered sugar. Drizzle with chocolate, if desired.

I love these crepes! They're so light and fluffy, and the lemon flavor is just perfect. I always make a double batch because they disappear so quickly.

These crepes were a bit too thick for my taste, but the almond mascarpone filling was delicious. I would probably try a different recipe for the crepes next time.

These crepes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more lemon zest and sugar to the batter next time. The almond mascarpone filling was good, but it could have been more flavorful as well.

These crepes were a bit of a disappointment. The batter was too thick and the crepes were difficult to flip. The almond mascarpone filling was also a bit too sweet for my taste.

I thought these crepes were just okay. The lemon flavor was a bit too strong for my taste, and the almond mascarpone filling was a bit too rich. I would probably try a different recipe next time.
