APPLE CREPES

Steps:

• Crepes:
• Put the eggs, water, and 1/2 cup milk in a large bowl. Whisk until combined. Add the flour, cinnamon and salt and again whisk until combined. Whisk in the melted butter.
• Refrigerate the batter for at least 1/2 hour.
• Heat a 6-inch non-stick pan over medium heat. Pour 2 tablespoons crepe batter into the pan and quickly rotate the pan so the batter forms a thin layer over the bottom of the pan. (Return excess batter to the remaining batter.) Cook the crepe for 1 to 2 minutes until it is golden brown. Loosen the edge of the crepe with a knife and using your fingers, invert the crepe and cook the other side for about 10 seconds.
• Continue cooking crepes until you have at least 12.
• Make sure the crepes are cool and then cover them with plastic wrap. Refrigerate until you are ready to serve them.
• Apple Balls:
• Peel the apples. Using a melon baller, scoop out the apple balls making sure you do not scoop into the core. Make 42 balls total.
• Combine the cider, sugar, and water in a medium-sized saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil and boil for about 30 seconds until the sugar dissolves.
• Reduce the cider mixture to a gentle boil. Place the apple balls in the cider syrup and cover them with parchment paper or a cloth towel. Poach the apple balls for about 5 minutes until the are soft. Be careful not to over-poach them as you want them to retain their shape. Poaching timing will depend on the variety of apple being used.
• Remove the apples from the cider syrup, reserving the syrup. The apples can be poached ahead of time.
• Plating:
• Place the cider syrup in a large saute pan over medium heat. Place the crepes 1 at a time in the liquid, folding them into quarters once they have been coated with the syrup. Heat the crepes until they are warmed through.
• Place 2 crepes on each plate. Increase the heat to high and add the lemon juice, Calvados, salt and butter. Cook until the sauce thickens slightly. While the sauce is cooking place a pile of apple balls on top of the crepes in the middle of each plate. Pour the sauce over the crepes. Top with a tablespoon of creme fraiche. Serve immediately.

CINNAMON APPLE CREPES

Steps:

• Prepare the crepe batter and cook the crepes according to this Crepe Recipe.
• If making the crepes the day before, stack them, place them in a freezer bag and store them in the refrigerator. If making them and serving them the same day, stack them on a place and keep at room temperature.
• Place the ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground allspice and salt in a small bowl and stir to combine.
• Peel and chop the apples into 1-inch cubes. Place them in a bowl and sprinkle with the lemon juice and toss the apples to coat them.
• Melt the butter in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat, when it starts to bubble add the brown sugar and stir until the brown sugar-butter mixture until the sugar is thoroughly mixed in with the butter and just starts to bubble.
• Add the apples in a single layer, turn the heat up to medium-high heat and cook the apples until half the liquid is evaporated. When the apples are cooking at the beginning, they will release a lot of liquid, so the amount of liquid in the pan will increase by a lot. Add the spice mixture and stir to mix in the spices and continue to cook the apples until most of the liquid has evaporated and a thick syrup remains
• Occasionally stir the apples to make sure they don't burn, but for the most part let them cook undisturbed so they caramelize but are still a little firm by the time the liquid is evaporated and they have start caramelize.
• Remove the apples from the heat and spoon them into a wide bowl. Scrape the pan to get all the syrup.
