LEMON CREPE BATTER
This is a recipe from an old 1970's cookbook that myself and my oldest Son still cook from. They are really great and very easy. I included the one hour resting time in the preparation time. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Beat together the eggs, egg yolks and lemon juice together with a whisk or in an electric blender. (We always use the blender and it's easy to pour from).
- Add the milk and beat well.
- Sift together the flour, sugar and salt and gradually add to the egg mixture.
- Add the vegetable oil and blend thoroughly.
- If beating by hand, strain the mixture through a sieve to remove any lumps.
- Stir in the lemon rind and allow mixture to stand for at least an hour before using (my kids can't do that!). If the batter is too thick, add a little milk and mix.
- Pour one or two tablespoons of the batter in the centre of a hot, nonstick frying pan. Tilt to spread the batter to the edges of the pan. Cook until the top is dry. Turn over and cook the other side for about 15 seconds. Don't worry if the first couple aren't perfect - those are the trial ones for me!
- You can roll these with fruit inside and top with whipped cream. I have a friend who just likes to eat these with a bit of powdered (confectioner's) sugar on them. Be adventuresome and try it with whatever sounds good with lemon!

Steps:
- In a blender, puree flour, sugar, salt, milk, eggs, and butter until smooth, about 30 seconds. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or up to 1 day; stir for a few seconds before using.
- Heat an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium. Lightly coat with butter. Quickly pour 1/4 cup batter into center of skillet, tilting and swirling pan until batter evenly coats bottom. Cook until crepe is golden in places on bottom and edges begin to lift from pan, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Lift one edge of crepe with an offset spatula, then use your fingers to gently flip crepe. Cook on second side until just set and golden in places on bottom, about 45 seconds. Slide crepe onto a paper towel-lined plate.
- Repeat with remaining batter, coating pan with more butter as needed, and stacking crepes directly on top of one another. Let cool to room temperature before using, wrapping in plastic wrap and refrigerating up to 5 days, or freezing up to 1 month.

LEMON-MASCARPONE CREPE CAKE
This Lemon-Mascarpone Crepe Cake is a dessert dream. Lemon curd can be made the week before; if you don't have time, use store-bought, and lighten it with whipped cream-the cake will still be delicious.

Steps:
- Crepes: Combine all ingredients in a blender. Puree until smooth and thoroughly combined, about 1 minute. Transfer to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate until cold, at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
- Vigorously stir batter until smooth again. Melt 1/2 teaspoon butter in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Tilt skillet at a 45-degree angle, pour 1 ounce batter (slightly more than 2 tablespoons) into skillet, and immediately swirl and shake skillet in a circular motion to evenly distribute batter in a thin film across bottom. Cook until edges of crepe turn golden, about 45 seconds. Carefully flip crepe, and cook just until set, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Melt another 1/2 teaspoon butter, and continue cooking crepes in the same manner, mixing batter with a spoon or ladle between crepes and stacking cooked crepes on top of one another (you should have 20 to 22 crepes). Let crepes cool completely, about 30 minutes.
- Lemon curd: Beat together butter and sugar with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy. Reduce speed to low, and add whole egg. When thoroughly combined, gradually add egg yolks, then lemon juice (the mixture will appear curdled). Transfer mixture to a small saucepan, and cook, stirring constantly, over medium heat until thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a bowl, cover surface of curd with plastic wrap, and let cool completely in the refrigerator, about 2 hours.
- Assembly: Whisk together 1 1/4 cups cream and 3 tablespoons sugar until soft peaks form. Fold a third of the whipped cream into lemon curd with a rubber spatula until thoroughly combined. Gently fold cream-curd mixture into remaining whipped cream until thoroughly combined.
- For a neat presentation, make a frame on a 12-inch cake plate with 2-inch-wide strips of parchment. Place 1 crepe in center of plate (the outer edge of plate should be covered with parchment), and spread 3 tablespoons curd mixture evenly over crepe. Repeat layering with remaining crepes and curd mixture, ending with the last crepe.
- Whisk together remaining 1 1/4 cups cream, the mascarpone, the remaining 3 tablespoons sugar, and the vanilla until soft peaks form. Spoon mascarpone cream on top of cake, and carefully spread across top and sides. Refrigerate until set, about 2 hours. Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes. Just before serving, remove parchment frame, and garnish with amaretti cookies.
- Crepe ExpectationsAbout 20 crepes sandwiched with lemon curd cream and thickly topped with mascarpone cream take the concept of layer cake to the next level.

LEMON RICOTTA CREPE RECIPE - BARBARA BAKES™
From barbarabakes.com
- Place ingredients into a blender in the order listed. Blend until smooth, scraping sides as you go. Cover and refrigerate 1-2 hours. (I skipped the refrigeration and just strain out any lumps.)
- To fry crepes, heat a skillet over medium high heat. Be sure to choose one that holds heat well that you can hold comfortably with one hand. Cast iron is great for this. (I have a special non-stick crepe pan.) Pour in about ½ teaspoon oil and swirl to coat bottom of pan. Hold the pan up off the heat and pour a small stream of batter into the hot pan with one hand while simultaneously rotating the pan with your other hand to cover the batter evenly across the bottom. Continue rotating the pan until the batter is evenly coated. Fry until golden brown spots form on the bottom {about 20 seconds}. Flip and cook the other side another 15 seconds and remove to a plate. It might take you a few tries to get the technique down, but once you get it, you’ll be a pro. Add in a few dribbles of oil as needed, usually after every 3 or 4 crepes. Cover cooked crepes with foil to keep warm.
- To serve, fill warm crepes with filling and roll or fold together. Top with powdered sugar, if desired.
