Crepes Filled With Griottines and Caramel is a delicious dessert that is often served in French cuisine. This recipe combines the light and airy crepe with the sweet and tangy flavor of sour cherries and caramel. The buttery caramel sauce is made from liquid sugar syrup, kirsch, cinnamon, caster sugar, sour cherries, and their juice, and pairs perfectly with the soft and fluffy texture of the crepes. The crepes are easy and quick to make and can be served with powdered sugar or whipped cream, depending on your preference.

Instructions

1.In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, egg yolks, caster sugar, light beer, milk, and salt until smooth and there are no lumps. Cover and let the batter rest in the refrigerator for an hour.
2.In a saucepan, melt butter and add liquid sugar syrup, kirsch, cinnamon, caster sugar, sour cherries, and their juice, and cook until the cherries soften and the mixture thickens into a caramel sauce. Set aside.
3.Heat a crepe pan or a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Grease the pan with a little butter and ladle enough batter to coat the bottom of the pan. Cook for a minute or two, then flip it over and cook for another minute or until the crepe edges are brown and crispy. Repeat until the batter is used up.
4.To assemble the crepes, spread some caramel sauce over each crepe and fold them into quarters. Serve immediately.
