Ingredients for Spinach Crepes
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- A handful of fresh spinach leaves
- A pinch of salt
- Butter, for the pan
For the Filling
- Sliced ripe tomatoes
- Cream cheese, softened
- Toasted almond flakes
- Salt and pepper to taste
- A squeeze of fresh lemon juice
Directions
- In a blender, combine the flour, eggs, milk, spinach leaves, and salt. Blend until the mixture turns into a smooth, green batter.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Melt a little butter to coat the pan.
- Pour in a ladleful of batter, swirling the pan to spread it thin. Cook until the edges lift easily, then flip to cook the other side. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- Once the crepes are ready, spread a layer of cream cheese on each one, and top with fresh tomato slices. Season with salt and pepper.
- Fold the crepes into quarters, sprinkle with toasted almond flakes, and finish with a squeeze of lemon juice right before serving.
Chef’s Note: The key to perfect crepes is a well-blended batter and a hot, lightly greased pan to ensure they don’t stick. For an extra touch of luxury, you can mix some herbs into the cream cheese.
