Dish: Crepes with Zabaglione and Raspberries Category: Dessert Serves: 4 Prep Time: 10 minutes Cooking Time: 25 minutes Cooking: Crepe pan, which is basically any thin walled cast pan. If you do not have one a non-stick pan should work just as well.
Ingredients: Item
CREPE BATTER
1 Cup all purpose flour 2 eggs
1 cup whole milk 2T unsalted butter
Preparation: Crepes • Sift flower into a bowl and very lightly whisk together with the eggs and milk with a fork. • Melt butter and add to mixture, the end result should be the consistency of runny custard. • Heat up your crepe pan on medium-high heat, use a little pan spray or butter to grease the pan and add an ounce or so of your batter to the pan, try and thin the batter out as much as possible by swirling the batter in the pan.
ZABAGLIONE 5 egg yolks 4T sugar
1/2c dry Marsala Zabaglione:
• Place a pot on the stove on high with water filled 1/3 of the way. Grab a metal bowl that fits over the pot with little overhang.
• Whisk together yolks, sugar and Marsala until blended, place on top of pot and stir with a rubber spatula until the mixture has thickened (170 degrees)
• Pour the Zabaglione into your crepe and stuff with your lady’s favorite fruit. Note:
1) If substituting banana for egg yolk then cooking will not be necessary, just blend ingredients together.
2) We do noT recommend any chemical based sweeteners. Why? Well… • Splenda, is sugar bonded with chlorine • Sweet ‘n Low, is made from coal tar • Aspartame once ingested, converts to formaldehyde

other’s Day… It is the day we celebrate that special woman (or special women) in our lives. We show our appreciation by showering them with gifts, cooking for them then taking them out to dinner. I love my mother, and my mother LoVES crepes, so for this month I decided to put together an Italian classic, crepes with a zabaglione cream filling garnished with raspberries. Prepared correctly this
