Wild Berry Crepes Filled with Yogurt
and Fresh Fruit

These "purple" crepes are not only fun to make, they're healthy.

Studded with puréed blueberries and raspberries, this crepe batter recipe is also healthy.

It makes a great breakfast that you can let your child fill with his or her own favorite crepe filings.

Ingredients for Crepe Batter:

  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 4 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1¾ cups skim milk
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup of frozen mixed berries (We used a combination of small Maine blueberries and raspberries)
  • pinch of salt

How To Make Crepe Batter:

Combine all ingredients except for frozen fruit into a blender and mix until well-blended. Add the fruit at the end and purée until smooth. Important: Refrigerate the batter for at least 30 minutes. This gives the batter the opportunity to rest and fully come together.

Yield: 24 6-inch crepes (8" pan) or 18 8-inch crepes (10" pan)

Note: You will only need 8 8-inch crepes for this recipe. You may refrigerate or freeze the remainder of these crepes for a future use.

Ingredients for 8 Wild Berry Crepes with Yogurt Filling:

  • 4 small cartons (6 oz.) of any flavor of low-fat yogurt (We used strawberry)
  • 4 cups of sliced fresh fruit such as strawberries and bananas
