Share
You love cream cheese, you love crepes. Why not combine them?
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 cup unsweetened soy milk
- 1 cup water
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1⁄4 tsp salt
- 1⁄4 tsp baking soda
- 2 tbsp melted vegan butter (+ more for buttering the pan)
For the cream cheese filling:
- 1 1⁄2 cup Nafsika’s Garden cream cheese
- 2 tbsp vegan butter – melted
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp parsley
Method
- In a bowl add the milk & the apple cider vinegar, whisk. Set aside for 10 minutes. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda & salt. Now add the vegan butter, milk & apple cider vinegar mix & water, mix until combined. You should have a light & “watery” batter.
- Heat a medium sized, non-stick pan to medium – high heat, or a crepe pan if you have one. Once hot, brush some of the melted vegan butter on the pan. Add about 1/3 cup of the batter to the pan. Immediately pick up the pan and rotate it to move the batter into a thin circle.
- Cook until the top looks fairly dry, about 2 minutes. Carefully flip the crepe over and cook for 30 seconds on the other side. Let it cool down on a plate & repeat the process with the rest of the crepes.
For the cream cheese filling:
- Allow the cream cheese to sit outside the fridge for 30 minutes or so to allow it to soften.
- Using a fork, mash the cream cheese, add the butter, maple syrup & parsley, whisk until you have a smooth cheese sauce, set aside.
- Assemble the crepe
- Spread 4 tbsp of the cream cheese in the middle of the crepe. Fold in a half, then again in a half.
- Repeat the process with the rest of the crepes.
