Crespelle (Italian Crepes)

Crespelles are Italian crepes used in dishes such as manicotti, lasagna and other stuffed dishes in place of pasta. They have a lighter texture than pasta. Make them a day ahead and refrigerate them, or stack them and freeze the unused portions.

Ingredients Needed:

• 1 cup flour
• 1 1/2 cups 1% milk
• 2 large egg whites
• 1 whole egg
• 1 tsp oil
• 1/2 tsp salt
•  olive oil spray

How to Make Them:

• Put all the ingredients in the blender.
• To make crespelles, heat a 6" non-stick frying pan on medium-low heat.
• Lightly spray pan using olive oil spray and pour a few tablespoons of batter into the pan, slowly swirling the batter around the pan to cover evenly.
• Cook about 1 minute. Flip and cook another minute.
• Remove and place on a plate and repeat the process with the remaining batter.
