Ingredients

  • 125 g all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 300 ml whole milk
  • 30 g melted butter, plus extra for cooking
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar
  • Pinch of salt
  • Zest of 1 orange
  • 60 ml fresh orange juice
  • 30 ml Grand Marnier (or orange liqueur)
  • 30 g unsalted butter (for sauce)
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar (for sauce)
  • 1 tsp fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  1. 11. In a bowl whisk flour, sugar, and salt; make a well in the centre.
  2. 22. Beat eggs and pour into the well, gradually incorporating flour, then whisk in milk to form a smooth batter.
  3. 33. Stir in melted butter and orange zest; let the batter rest 30 minutes at room temperature.
  4. 44. Heat a non‑stick skillet over medium heat, brush lightly with butter, and pour a thin circle of batter, swirling to coat the pan; cook 1‑2 minutes per side until lightly golden; repeat to make 8‑10 crepes.
  5. 55. In a separate saucepan melt 30 g butter, add 2 tbsp sugar and stir until caramelized, then deglaze with orange juice, lemon juice, and Grand Marnier; simmer 2‑3 minutes.
  6. 66. Return the cooked crepes to the pan, fold them into quarters and gently toss to coat with the orange‑butter sauce.
  7. 77. Warm briefly (30 seconds) to allow the sauce to soak into the crepes, then plate.
  8. 88. Serve immediately, optionally garnished with a dusting of powdered sugar or a slice of orange.
