I'm not a big fan of hazelnuts, but I still enjoyed these crepes. The apples were the star of the show.

I had some trouble getting the crepes to flip properly, but they still tasted great. I think I just need more practice.

These crepes were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still very good. I think next time I'll use less maple syrup.
