CREPE TOPPING RECIPES

Steps:

• 1. Crack the eggs into a blender, then add the flour, milk and 1 pinch of sea salt, and blitz until smooth.
  2. Pour into a bowl and leave to stand for 15 minutes.
  3. Melt the butter (or a drizzle of oil if you want to be a bit healthier) in a large non-stick frying pan on a medium heat, then tilt the pan so the butter coats the surface.
  4. Pour in 1 ladle of batter and tilt again, so that the batter spreads all over the base, then cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until it starts to come away from the sides.
  5. Once golden underneath, flip the pancake over and cook for 1 further minute, or until cooked through.
  6. Serve straightaway with your favourite topping.

Steps:

• Make the crepes by melting the butter and allowing it to brown slightly. Set aside.
• In the same pot, warm the milk. Remove from heat.
• In a bowl, whisk flour, cocoa powder, and sugar. Mix in eggs.
• Gradually mix in butter and warm milk. Chill.
• On a nonstick skillet over medium heat, pour ¼ cup (60 ml) of crepe batter, and tip the pan to cover the entire bottom surface. Cook until bottom surface of crepe begins to brown, then flip.
• Cool crepe. Repeat until all of the crepe batter is used.
• Stack crepes on top of each other, with whipped cream between each layer. Once assembled, trim edges for a cleaner look, if desired.
• For the ganache, bring the heavy cream and sugar to a boil, and pour over chocolate and butter. Let cool.
• Spread over the crepe cake.
• Top with sifted powdered sugar (optional).
• Enjoy!
