8 crepes
Ingredients (8)
- 125g plain flour
- 450ml milk
- 2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus extra melted butter, to grease
- 4 eggs
- 40ml (2 tablespoons) Grand Marnier liqueur
- 50g caster sugar
- Icing sugar, to dust
- Whipped cream, optional, to serve
Method
-
1.Place 100g of the flour, 300ml of the milk, 1 tablespoon of the butter, 1 of the eggs and 1 egg yolk in the bowl of a food processor and process to combine. Transfer to a jug and set aside to rest for 15 minutes.
-
2.Lightly grease a 15cm crepe pan with melted butter. When hot, pour in enough batter to cover the base of the pan. Cook for 1 minute each side until golden. Stack the crepes with a sheet of baking paper between each layer until you are ready to use them. (Place in an airtight container if storing for more than 1 hour.)
-
3.Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place remaining butter in a saucepan, add remaining flour and milk and cook over low heat, whisking constantly, until thick. Remove from heat, beat in 2 egg yolks and the Grand Marnier.
-
4.In a separate bowl, whisk 2 egg whites until stiff, slowly add the caster sugar and continue to whisk until thick and glossy. Fold the egg whites into the Grand Marnier mixture. Place 2 tablespoons of the filling on one half of each crepe, fold over the other half to enclose. Carefully place filled crepes on a large greased baking tray and bake for 10 minutes until well risen.

5.Dust with icing sugar and serve immediately with cream if desired.
