Satisfy your sweet tooth with these vanilla crepes with spiced apples.

4 (450g) apples, peeled and chopped
1/2 tsp ground cardamom
1/4 cup (90g) golden syrup, plus extra to serve
1 cup (150g) plain flour, sifted
2 tbs caster sugar
1 1/4 cups (310ml) milk
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 tsp vanilla extract
40g unsalted butter, melted and cooled, plus extra to brush
2 cups (500g) Greek yoghurt
1/4 cup (35g) slivered pistachios

Method

1.

To make the spiced apple, place apple, cardamom and golden syrup in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until apple is soft. Set aside.
2.

In a large mixing bowl whisk together the flour and sugar. Make a well in the centre and add the milk, eggs, vanilla and butter, and whisk until smooth. Set aside for 20 minutes to rest.
3.

Heat a non-stick crepe pan or frypan over medium-low heat and brush with butter. Add 1/2 cup of batter to the pan and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden and cooked. Keep warm while you continue with the remaining batter.
4.

Divide yoghurt and apple among crepes, then fold to create a triangle. Sprinkle with pistachios and drizzle with extra golden syrup to serve.
