Buckwheat Crepes with Sautéed Apples and Gruyère Cheese

Monday August 31, 2009

Crepes are like very thin pancakes typically filled with cheese, ham or bacon, thinly sliced fruit, and/or eggs. Crepes are very popular in France and originated in the region of Brittany, where they are made with buckwheat flour. In most of France, crepes are rolled up or folded into half or quarter circles, but in Brittany the four rounded sides are folded in over the filling, forming a square, and then the crepe is inverted onto a serving plate.
