Mixed Berry Crepes with Chocolate Drizzle
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- In a blender, combine 1 cup of flour, 2 eggs, 1/2 cup of milk, 1/2 cup of water, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Blend until smooth.
- Heat a lightly oiled non-stick pan over medium heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the pan, using approximately 1/4 cup for each crepe. Tilt the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly.
- Cook the crepe for about 2 minutes, until the bottom is light brown. Loosen with a spatula, turn and cook the other side.
- In a small saucepan, combine the mixed berries and granulated sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the berries release their juices and the sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In another small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and add the chocolate chips. Let it sit for 1 minute, then stir until smooth and creamy. If needed, return to low heat and stir until completely melted.
- To assemble, spoon the mixed berry mixture onto each crepe, then fold or roll the crepe. Drizzle with the chocolate sauce and serve immediately.
Mixed Berry Crepes with a drizzle of chocolate sauce have a rich history dating back to the 13th century in France. This delectable dish gained popularity in the 19th century when it became a staple in French cuisine. Renowned chefs like Julia Child and Jacques Pépin have contributed to its popularity in the culinary world. The combination of sweet mixed berries and the indulgent chocolate sauce creates a perfect balance of flavors. Today, the best version of this dish can be found in quaint French cafes, where skilled chefs meticulously craft the delicate crepes and use only the freshest berries. The key to perfecting this dish lies in the thinness of the crepes and the quality of the chocolate sauce. For a twist, some chefs incorporate a hint of citrus zest into the crepe batter for an added burst of flavor. Whether enjoyed as a decadent breakfast or a delightful dessert, mixed berry crepes with a drizzle of chocolate sauce are a true delight for the senses.
