I've made these crepes several times and they always turn out perfectly. They're a great way to use up leftover apples and cranberries.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my crepes were a complete disaster. They were thick and rubbery, and the filling was bland.

I'm not a huge fan of cranberries, but I really enjoyed these crepes. The apple and cranberry filling was perfectly balanced and not too tart.
