INGREDIENTS
-
Crepes:
- 2 cups wheat flour
- 1/4 cup superfine sugar
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 2 cups of milk
- 4 eggs
Fillings
- 1 stick softened butter
- 2/3 cup powdered sugar
- 1 organic orange
- 5 fl oz Grand Marnier
METHOD
Pour the flour in a mixing bowl, making a well in the center. Pour eggs, superfine sugar, and milk, then mix with a whisk.
Melt butter, then add to the mixture. Mix until the crepe batter is smooth and homogeneous.
Let sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
Heat the 11 inch CRISTEL® crepe pan to 2/3 of maximum power of your source of heat, then pour a ladle of batter and spread it evenly over the entire surface of the pan. Cook the crepe for about 1 minute on each side.
Repeat with the remaining batter.
For the filling:
Zest the orange.
Cream together the softened butter, powdered sugar and orange zest in a mixing bowl.
Fill the crepes and fold them in quarters.
Juice the orange.
Heat the crepe pan with a dab of butter, then add the orange juice and a teaspoon of sugar. Add the crepes to the crepe pan and allow the juice to reduce slightly.
Heat the Grand Marnier in a mini Castel'Pro® saucepan, remove crepes from heat and pour the Grand Marnier over them, then flambé.
