Old Granite Inn, Rockland, MaineIngredients:
2 eggs1-1/2 cups milk
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup flour
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus extra for cooking crepes
1 pound cream cheese, room temperature
1 egg
1/2 cup powdered sugar
Zest of 1 lemon
Juice of 2 lemons
Blueberry Compote
Instructions:
Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a blender, combine eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, flour, and butter until smooth. Let batter stand for 10 to 15 minutes, letting air bubbles rise to top. In a 7-inch crepe pan (or nonstick skillet), over medium-high heat, melt a thin layer of butter to coat the bottom. Add just enough batter to coat the pan. Cook about 1 minute, or until lightly browned on the bottom; then flip and cook other side about 1 minute. Remove to a plate to cool, and continue with the rest of the batter. (You may stack crepes.)In a food processor, combine cream cheese, egg, sugar, lemon zest, and juice until smooth. Spoon 2 tablespoons of filling in the center of each crepe and roll up. Place crepes, seam-side down, in a single layer in a greased baking dish and bake 20 minutes (or until fully warmed through). Serve with the blueberry compote on top.
