FRENCH CREPES WITH STRAWBERRY CREAM



French Crepes With Strawberry Cream image

I found this recipe while searching for something to do with the fresh strawberrys I had, and decided I would try this crepe ecipe i found on all foods. Crepes have always been kind of a daunting idea before now, so wasnt sure how it would turn out. I cahnged up the original recipe by adding " coolwhip" whipped topping instead of making Heavy whipped cream from scratch, and was thinking creamfresh might be an even better alternative. Wanted to save this recipe here after making them and was very impressed at how they turned out and the taste was awsome.

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

For crêpes
7/8 cup flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
3 eggs
1 teaspoon grated lemon rind (or a lttle grated vanilla bean)
2 tablespoons cognac
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 1/2 cups milk
For filling
1 quart fresh ripe strawberries
Sugar
1/2 cup oloroso sherry
1/3 cup cognac, warmed
Cream or whipped cream

Steps:

  • Make crêpes:
  • Sift flour, sugar, and salt. Add eggs, one at a time, and mix until no lumps remain (you may use an electric mixer at slow speed). Mix in lemon rind or vanilla, cognac, and melted butter. Slowly add milk and mix until batter is consistency of thin cream. Let it stand an hour or two before making crêpes.
  • Heat a crêpe pan (either 6-inch or 10-inch, according to desired size of crêpes) and rub it with butter. For each crêpe, pour a little batter into the pan, tilting about to let it run over the bottom in a fairly thin layer. When lightly browned on the bottom, turn carefully and brown other side. As each crêpe is cooked, remove it to a hot platter and keep warm. Re-butter pan as needed.
  • Make filling:
  • Sprinkle washed, hulled, and sliced strawberries with sugar to taste and add sherry. Let stand to mellow. Heap each crêpe with sliced strawberries, roll up and arrange in a buttered chafing dish and heat over hot water. Melt currant jelly and pour over crêpes. Add and ignite cognac. Serve with plain or whipped cream.

STRAWBERRY CREPES FLAMBE



Strawberry Crepes Flambe image

Dim the lights when you flambé this strawberry-brown-sugar-rum sauce over crepes tableside. It makes for one spectacular and delicious dessert.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Crepe Recipes

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.

Tips:

  • Make sure the crepes are thin and cooked evenly. This will help them to fold easily without breaking.
  • Use fresh strawberries for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh strawberries, you can use frozen strawberries that have been thawed and drained.
  • Don't overfill the crepes. You want to be able to fold them easily without them bursting.
  • Serve the crepes immediately with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include whipped cream, ice cream, chocolate sauce, and powdered sugar.
  • If you are making the crepes ahead of time, you can store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Just be sure to reheat them before serving.

Conclusion:

French strawberry crepes are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that will impress your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these crepes a try. You won't be disappointed!
