Eggs, Dairy (Milk and Goat Cheese)

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all
  • purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 3/4 cups milk
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 6 oz goat cheese, crumbled
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • Fresh basil leaves, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Make the crepe batter by whisking together flour, eggs, milk, melted butter, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until smooth. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. In a pan over medium heat, cook onion slices with olive oil, stirring occasionally, until caramelized, about 15 20 minutes. Add balsamic vinegar and cook for another minute. Set aside to cool slightly.
  3. Heat a non stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Pour in about 1/4 cup of batter, swirling it around to form a thin crepe. Cook until the edges are set, then flip and cook the other side briefly. Repeat for all crepes.
  4. Assemble the crepes by spreading a thin layer of goat cheese on each one, followed by a portion of caramelized onions. Roll up and garnish with basil leaves.
