Best 2 Spiced Soufflé Crepe With Sautéed Apples Recipes

JACQUES PéPIN ORANGE SOUFFLé CRêPES RECIPE - (3.7/5)

Steps:

• Crêpes: Melt butter in a skillet While the butter is melting, combine flour, eggs, sugar, salt, and 1/4 cup milk. Whisk until smooth and thick. Add enough milk to make a thin batter. Add the melted butter. Ladle some of the batter into the skillet. Quickly turn the skillet to coat the pan with the batter. Cook for about 1 minute, at least on one side. When you see it is golden, flip it over to cook for a little bit longer. Remove from pan. Repeat for each crêpe. Soufflé Filling: Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease an ovenproof pan with butter then sprinkle with sugar and shake to cover butter. Whip eggs whites until firm peaks form. Add 1 cup sugar and orange zest to peaked whites and mix. Place crêpes on prepared baking dish and ladle filling onto each crêpe. Fold each crêpe once and dust with powdered sugar. Bake about 10 minutes. Dust lightly with more powdered sugar and drizzle lightly with Grand Marnier, if desired. Serve immediately.

SPICED SOUFFLé CREPE WITH SAUTéED APPLES

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.
