INGREDIENTS:
CREPES:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- Pinch of salt
SAUCE:
- Juice of 4-5 blood oranges
- 1/2 cup sugar
METHOD:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, eggs, milk, water, melted butter, and salt to make the crepe batter. Let the batter rest for 30 minutes.
- While the batter is resting, prepare the blood orange sauce. Squeeze the juice from the blood oranges into a small saucepan and add the sugar. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved. Let the sauce simmer for a few minutes until it thickens slightly. Set the sauce aside.
- Heat a lightly greased non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour a small amount of the crepe batter into the skillet, swirling to spread it thinly and evenly. Cook the crepe for about 2 minutes, or until the edges start to lift from the pan. Carefully flip the crepe and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- To serve, fold the crepes into quarters and drizzle with the blood orange sauce or serve on the side. Decorate with thin slices of blood orange and dust with powdered sugar.
Makes 8-12 crepes
