  • Author: Patricia

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 ½ cups milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • Pinch of salt
  • Butter, for greasing the skillet
  • Fresh raspberries, for filling
  • Powdered sugar, for dusting

For the Vanilla Cream (optional)

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 8 ounces mascarpone cheese, softened

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, and salt.
  2. In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
  3. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking continuously until smooth and well combined.
  4. Cover the batter and let it rest for at least 30 minutes at room temperature.
  5. In a large bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
  6. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and continue whipping until stiff peaks form.
  7. In a separate bowl, beat the mascarpone cheese until smooth and creamy.
  8. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone cheese until well combined. Chill until ready to use.
  9. Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly grease with butter.
  10. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the pan, tilting to spread it evenly into a thin layer.
  11. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and the bottom is lightly golden. Flip and cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  12. Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the crepes with parchment paper in between.
  13. If desired, mix the raspberries with granulated sugar and let sit for a few minutes to macerate.Spread a generous spoonful of vanilla cream onto each crepe and fold or roll as desired.
  14. Top with fresh raspberries and dust with powdered sugar if desired.
  15. Serve the crepes immediately, garnished with additional raspberries and a drizzle of raspberry sauce if desired.
