Ingredients
Crepes
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/4 cups milk
- 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp melted butter, plus more for the pan
- 1/4 tsp salt
Tropical Fruit Filling
- 1 mango peeled and diced
- 2 kiwis, peeled and diced peeled and diced
- 1 cup diced fresh pineapple
- 1/2 cup diced dragon fruit
- 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 tsp fresh lime juice
- Honey, powdered sugar, whipped cream, additional fresh fruit, and lime zest optional, for serving
Instructions
- Add the flour, eggs, milk, honey, vanilla, melted butter, and salt to a blender.
- Blend for 20–30 seconds, or until the batter is smooth and no lumps remain.
- Allow the batter to rest for 10–15 minutes. This gives the flour time to absorb the liquid and helps create soft, flexible crepes.
- While the batter rests, combine the kiwi, pineapple, dragon fruit, and blueberries in a medium bowl. Drizzle with lime juice, if using, and toss gently to combine.
- Heat an 8- or 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Lightly coat the pan with butter.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the center of the skillet. Immediately lift and rotate the skillet so the batter spreads into a thin, even circle.
- Cook the crepe for 1–2 minutes, or until the surface looks set and the edges begin to lift away from the pan.
- Carefully flip the crepe with a thin spatula. Cook for another 20–30 seconds, or until lightly golden.
- Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, lightly buttering the skillet as needed. Stack the crepes on the plate and cover them with a clean kitchen towel to keep them soft.
- Spoon the tropical fruit mixture down the center of each crepe. Fold the sides over the filling or fold each crepe into quarters.
- Top with honey, powdered sugar and/or whipped cream. Serve immediately.
