Ingredients
- 1 cup milk
- 1 egg
- 1⁄2 cup plus 1 Tbs. all-purpose flour
- 1⁄2 tsp. canola oil
- 1 tsp. minced fresh thyme
- 1⁄2 tsp. salt, plus more, to taste
- 8 tsp. unsalted butter
- 4 oz. goat cheese (chèvre), crumbled
- 6 Tbs. fig jam
- Chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley for garnish
Instructions
- In a bowl or batter pitcher, combine the milk, egg, flour, oil, thyme and the 1/2 tsp. salt. Using an immersion blender, blend until smooth. Refrigerate for 2 to 8 hours.
- In a crepe pan over medium heat, melt 1 tsp. of the butter to coat the pan evenly. Lift the pan at a slight angle and pour 2 Tbs. of the batter into the center, tilting the pan to spread the batter to the edges. Return the pan to the heat and cook until the crepe is golden underneath, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip the crepe over and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate and cover. Repeat to make 8 crepes.
- Position a rack 6 inches from the broiler and preheat. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- To assemble, on a clean work surface, lay a crepe flat. Top with 1/2 oz. of the cheese and season with salt. Fold the crepe into quarters and place on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining crepes and cheese.
- Broil the crepes until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Place 2 crepes on each plate. Top with 1 1/2 Tbs. fig jam and garnish with parsley. Serves 4.
