Melt 2 tablespoons of butter and add to crepe mixture. Batter should be extremely thin. |
Step 12
|
Heat a 10"non-stick skillet on high heat. Add a small amount of butter to cover the bottom of the pan. |

Stir the batter between each crepe to ensure it is fully blended; flour has a tendency to settle. Pour approximately 1/3 cup of batter into heated pan beginning in a circular pattern from the outer edges of the pan to the center. Lift the pan and swirl in all directions creating an even coating. |

Cook until outer edges begin to crisp and pull away from the pan. Flip over and cook an additional 1 minute on other side. |

|
Place cooked crepe onto a warm plate and flip in half. Continue cooking until all crepe batter is used. |
Step 16
|
Open crepe and place a small amount of apple compote down the center. Roll crepe and add a small amount of compote on top. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve warm. |
