Author: Haggen Northwest Fresh
Serves: 4-6
Ingredients
Crepes
- 4 eggs, room temperature
- 2⅓ cups whole milk
- ⅔ cup sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2⅓ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- 4 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- Fresh berries, for topping
Berry Butter
- ½ lb butter, room temperature
- ½ cup berries of your choice
Berry Compote
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 cups berries of your choice
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 2 Tbsp butter
Homemade Whipping Cream
- 1 cup cold heavy whipping cream
- 2 Tbsp powdered sugar
- ½ tsp pure vanilla
Instructions
Crepes
- Beat eggs, milk, sugar and vanilla until smooth and frothy. Add flour and salt and blend to combine. Cover batter and chill for at least 1 hour.
- Heat medium non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and brush with butter. Ladle ¼ cup of batter into the skillet and swirl to evenly coat bottom. Cook crepe until bubbles form on the surface and edges are golden and crisp, about 3 minutes. Carefully slide a spatula underneath and flip. Cook on the other side until a few brown spots appear, about 15 seconds, then transfer to plate. Cover with foil to keep warm while you cook remaining crepes. Repeat with remaining butter and batter.
- When ready to eat, fold crepe into quarters and top with fresh berries and berry butter.
Berry Butter
- Whip butter on high with a whisk or paddle attachment. Add fresh berries and turn mixer to low for about five seconds.
- Scoop onto a sheet of parchment paper and wrap to create a cylinder, tying off the ends. Place in freezer for 30 seconds to quickly set then transfer to refrigerator until ready to use.
Berry Compote
- Over medium heat, combine 2 Tbsp of water with sugar and bring to boil, stirring to dissolve sugar. Cook for 2 minutes, then add berries and lemon juice.
- Return to boil, add butter and swirl mixture until better melts.
Homemade Whipping Cream
- Combine ingredients in cold bowl and whisk on high speed until medium to stiff peaks form (about 1 minute).
