Matt Sinclair

Ingredients:

Batter

  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 3/4 cup plain flour
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup EVOO
  • Pinch sea salt

Compote

  • 1 cup frozen mixed berries
  • 2 tbsp caster sugar
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • Lemon zest

Topping

  • Whipped Cream
  • Dark Chocolate

Method:

Batter

  1. Place eggs, water and milk into a blender, followed by the rest of the crepe batter ingredients. Blitz for approximately 30 seconds until smooth. Place the blender jug and batter into the fridge to rest for at least 15 minutes.

Compote

  1. Meanwhile, place all compote ingredients into a small saucepan, lid on. Put the saucepan on your smallest burner, on the lowest heat. Cook for approximately 15 – 20 minutes, or until syrupy.

Crepes

  1. Place a large non-stick pan on medium heat, brush the pan with butter. When pan is hot pour in approximately 1/3 cup of crepe batter and swirl around the circumference of the pan until the batter is set. Place back on the heat for approximately 1 minute, flip over and cook for a further minute. Repeat process, working on 3 crepes per serve.
  2. Top crepes with compote, whipped cream and grated dark chocolate.
