Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1.25 cups Milk
• 2 Large eggs
• 2 tablespoons Melted butter
• 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Ricotta cheese
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
• 1 teaspoon Orange zest
• 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, etc.)
• 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until fully blended and then whisk in the milk and melted butter.

Step 3

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking constantly until a smooth batter forms. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes.

Step 4

Meanwhile, prepare the citrus filling. In a medium bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, honey, lemon zest, orange zest, and vanilla extract until creamy and well-combined. Set aside.

Step 5

Heat a medium-sized non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.

Step 6

Pour 1/4 cup of crepe batter into the pan, swirling it around quickly to cover the bottom of the pan in a thin layer.

Step 7

Cook for about 1-2 minutes until the edges begin to lift and the bottom is lightly golden. Flip carefully and cook for another 30-60 seconds until the second side is golden. Remove from the pan and repeat with the remaining batter.

Step 8

To assemble, place a spoonful of citrus ricotta filling down the center of each crepe, fold or roll the crepe around the filling, and transfer to a serving plate.

Step 9

Top the filled crepes with a handful of fresh berries, a light dusting of powdered sugar, and drizzle with honey for added sweetness.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your Sunshine Breakfast Crepes!
