ingredients

directions

1. TO MAKE CREPES: In medium bowl, whisk eggs and salt. Whisk in flour, milk and butter until smooth. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
2. Stir batter before using. Heat a 7 or 8 inch crepe pan or skillet until very hot. It is ready when a few drops of water skitter across the pan and evaporate quickly. Grease skillet lightly with oil or shortening.
3. Raise pan from heat with one hand and with the other hand pour about 3 tablespoons batter all at once into pan. As you pour, turn and tip pan several times so that batter forms a thin film over bottom. Cook over medium heat until top is set, about 30 seconds. Loosen edges, turn over and cook a few seconds.
4. Lift cooked crepe with spatula onto wire rack to cool. Repeat procedure until all batter is used. Makes about 18 crepes.
5. TO MAKE AMBROSIA FILLING:.
6. Combine all ingredients, Chill to blend flavors.
7. Place about 1/4 cup filling on each crepe, fold as desired. Garnish with more fruit and yogurt. Drizzle with maple syrup, if desired.
