Yield 4 crepes

Number Of Ingredients 8

Simple Crepes
4 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of kosher salt
1 1/2 cups halved strawberries
2 tablespoons silver rum
3 tablespoons chilled heavy cream, whisked until slightly thickened, for serving

Steps:

  • Fold crepes in quarters. Heat in 1 tablespoon unsalted butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-high, flipping once, until warm and crisp, 5 minutes; divide between 2 plates.
  • Return skillet to heat; melt 3 tablespoons butter. Stir in packed light-brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of kosher salt; cook, swirling pan, until darkened slightly, 1 to 2 minutes. Add halved strawberries; cook until tender, 2 minutes. Remove from heat; add silver rum.
  • To flambe, return skillet to medium-high heat. If using a gas burner, carefully tilt pan away from you to ignite; if using an electric burner, use a lit long match held just above the sauce. When flame subsides (5 to 10 seconds), spoon strawberries over crepes. Return skillet to medium-high heat and reduce sauce until thickened, 1 to 2 minutes; pour over crepes. Whisk heavy cream until thickened slightly. Drizzle over crepes; serve.

These crepes were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll use less sugar next time.

I'm allergic to strawberries. Can I substitute another fruit, like blueberries or raspberries?

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I'll stick to simpler crepe recipes in the future.

The crepes were delicious, but the strawberry flambé sauce was a bit too strong for my taste. Next time, I'll use less Grand Marnier.
