Ingredients

For the syrup:

1 pint fresh blackberries
1/2 cup sugar

For the crepes:

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 pinch kosher salt
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 1/4 cups milk
2 tablespoons melted butter (plus a small pat of butter for the pan)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    1. Put the blackberries, sugar, and 1 ounce of water in a pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the mixture has reached a syrupy consistency, about 10 minutes.

    Step 2

    2. Meanwhile, sift the flour and salt into a medium mixing bowl.

    Step 3

    3. Whisk the beaten eggs and milk together and pour them into the flour mixture.

    Step 4

    4. Whisk in the melted butter, then strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove any lumps.

    Step 5

    5. Place a nonstick pan over medium heat. Melt the pat of butter, then pour in enough batter to cover the surface of the pan. Cook until golden brown, about 1 minute on each side.

    Step 6

    6. Fold the crepe in half, pour syrup over, and serve.
