Tart apples are particularly abundant this time of year. Portnoy used Granny Smith apples, but you can try this recipe with Empire, Macoun, Honeycrisp, Winesap or Pippin.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a 12-inch iron skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter with the thyme sprigs over medium-high heat. Add the apples and brown on all sides until just tender when pierced with a fork, 10 to 15 minutes. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of the sugar and cook, gently stirring, until the sugar dissolves and the apples caramelize, about 1 to 2 minutes more. Remove the thyme and set the apples aside. Wipe the skillet clean.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the vanilla pod and seeds with the melted butter, egg yolks, 1/2 cup of the sugar, cinnamon, allspice, cake flour and a pinch of salt. Whisk in the milk until combined.
- Whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt, gradually adding the remaining 1/4 cup sugar. Whip to soft peaks, and then fold into the batter.
- Melt the remaining 3 tablespoons butter in the clean skillet over medium-high heat, swirling the butter up the sides of the pan. When the butter is foamy, spread the sauteed apples in the pan, then pour in the batter. Transfer to the oven and bake uncovered until the center of crepe no longer wobbles when shaken, 20 to 25 minutes. Sift confectioners' sugar on top, and if you like, serve with vanilla ice cream or creme fraiche.

SAUTEED APPLES
Here's a sweet side dish my family loves. It's wonderful on its own, but you can use it to top pancakes or french toast for breakfast, too. -Shirley Heston, Pickerington, Ohio

Tips:
- Make sure the butter is cold and cut into small pieces before adding it to the flour. This will help create a flaky crust.
- If you don't have a pastry blender, you can use two knives to cut the butter into the flour.
- Work quickly when making the dough, as the butter can start to melt if it gets too warm.
- Once the dough is formed, wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out.
- When rolling out the dough, use a light touch and don't overwork it. Otherwise, the dough will become tough.
- If the dough is too sticky to roll out, sprinkle it with a little flour.
- Be sure to preheat the oven before baking the crepes.
- When cooking the crepes, use a non-stick skillet over medium heat. This will help prevent them from sticking.
- Cook the crepes for about 1-2 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown.
- Once the crepes are cooked, fill them with your favorite fillings and serve.
Conclusion:
Spiced soufflé crepe with sautéed apples is a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The crepes are light and fluffy, while the filling is rich and creamy.
