Apple Pie Cinnamon Crepes, the perfect recipe to end the winter season. A simple cinnamon crepe with a delicious Apple Pie filling.
A little while ago I shared a recipe for La Piadina a delicious Italian Flat Bread. Today I decided to share another one of my youngest daughters favourite recipes.
Crepes, when she was little I would make crepes and the only thing she would fill it with was Nutella. Now thank goodness she has grown up a little and gained a little sense.
Now she has decided that this Apple Pie Filling is the best filling for her crepes.
When I make crepes it seems I have to make two different sizes, thin and not so thin. She likes them thin and the Italian likes them on the thicker side.
Apple Pie Cinnamon Crepes
In our house crepes are pretty well a common occurrence, from snacks to dessert. I decided to end the winter season with my favourite fruit – apples.
From Apple Pie to Apple Bread and now Apple Pie Cinnamon Crepes.
So Happy Spring and Bye Bye Winter, I hope you enjoy one or two Apple Pie Cinnamon Crepes. Buon Appetito!

The batter ended up being much too thick, to the point that it wasn’t fluid. I added more milk to bring the batter to a preferred consistency. They turned out well, although it still seemed like more liquid was needed. A pinch of salt would balance the apple mixture.

Hi!
I would love to make this recipe but I do not have any borwn sugar… does it taste any different if I use white sugar?
Thanks,
Naimu

Hi Naimu it might taste a little different because brown sugar gives a bit of a caramel taste, but you could substitute it, I would add 1 1 1/4 tablespoons, instead of 1 1/2. Hope that helps

This is great! It doesn’t take even half an hour to make. And I’ve always loved the combo of apples and cinnamon.
Thanks for sharing this!
Caroline says
I would like to know what size pan you used to make the crepes. Thank you they look great!
Rosemary says
Hi Caroline, thanks I think it was about 6 or 7 inches (I’m not home now so I can’t measure it sorry).
