Ingredients
Scale
Crepe Batter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Pumpkin Filling
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Prepare the Crepe Batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, and milk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. Stir in melted butter, sugar, and salt. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes to ensure tender crepes.
- Cook the Crepes: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with butter or oil. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet and swirl to cover the bottom evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges begin to lift and the bottom is lightly golden. Flip and cook the other side for 30 seconds. Remove and set aside. Repeat until all batter is used.
- Prepare the Pumpkin Filling: In a bowl, combine pumpkin puree, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until smooth and well blended.
- Fill and Fold the Crepes: Spoon a generous amount of the pumpkin filling onto each crepe, spreading it evenly. Fold the crepes into quarters or roll them up as preferred.
- Serve: Serve the crepes warm, optionally dusted with powdered sugar or topped with whipped cream or maple syrup for extra indulgence.
Notes
- Resting the batter helps achieve more tender crepes.
- You can substitute pumpkin puree with fresh cooked and mashed pumpkin.
- Adjust the spices to your taste preference for a milder or stronger pumpkin spice flavor.
- Crepes can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days or frozen for longer storage.
- Serve with additional toppings such as nuts or yogurt for added texture and flavor.
