Ingredients
- Vanilla Crepes
- Milk - 1/2 cup
- Egg Yolk - 1
- Vanilla Extract - 2 tsps.
- All-Purpose Flour - 1/2 cup
- Sugar - 2 tsps.
- Salt - 1/8 tsp
- Butter - 1 tbsp & 2 tsps, melted
- Warm Raspberry Compote
- BC Raspberries, fresh - 3 cups
- Sugar - 1/2 cup

Instructions
Vanilla Crepes:
- In a large bowl, mix together the milk, egg yolk and vanilla. Sift together the flour, sugar and salt into the bowl. Add the melted butter and stir until well blended.
- Heat a round, smooth 9-inch pan over medium heat until hot. Coat lightly with cooking spray. Pour 1/3 cup of batter into the pan, lift up the pan from the heat and tip to spread the batter to the edges; return to heat. When bubbles form on the top and the edges are dry, flip over with a wide spatula and cool until lightly browned on the other side and edges are golden. Repeat with remaining batter.
- Place crepe on a plate, fill with 1/4 cup raspberry compote, dust with powdered sugar (optional), and serve immediately.
Raspberry Compote
- In a saucepan, combine the berries, sugar, and lemon juice. Over medium heat, bring to a simmer, stirring frequently until the sugar dissolves and the berries give up their juices.
- Continue simmering, stirring occasionally, until the juices thicken to a syrupy consistency, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat. Serve warm with crepes, ice cream, breakfast oatmeal, or cool to room temperature, cover and refrigerate.
