Banana crêpes with blueberry jam

The batter for banana crêpes with blueberry jam is mixed in gradually so it stays smooth, then left to rest for 10-15 minutes. The farmer cheese, honey and lemon zest filling stays soft, with fresh fruit on top; I prefer thin crêpes that fold easily around it. Preparation: 20 minutes. Cooking: 24 minutes. Resting: 10-15 minutes. Total time: 54-59 minutes. Serves: 4. Approximately 620 kcal and 26 g protein per serving.
Ingredients
For the batter
- 200 g flour
- 300 ml milk
- 3 eggs
- 110 ml sparkling water
- 15 ml rum
- 15 ml oil
For the filling
- 400 g farmer cheese
- 80 g powdered sugar
- 8 g vanilla sugar
- 7 g honey
- 100 g sour cream
- 1 lemon (grated zest)
To serve
- 500 g fresh fruit
Preparation
1. Beat the eggs with 150 ml milk. Gradually whisk in the flour, then add the remaining 150 ml milk, 15 ml rum and 110 ml sparkling water. Leave the batter to rest for 10-15 minutes. 2. Mash the farmer cheese and mix it with the powdered sugar and vanilla sugar. Add the honey, sour cream and grated lemon zest, then stir until you have a smooth filling. 3. Heat a frying pan with some of the 15 ml oil. Cook the crêpes one at a time, for about 2 minutes each, turning them when the edges come away and the underside is lightly browned. 4. Fill the crêpes with cheese. Rinse and dry the fresh fruit, cut it up if it is large, and serve it alongside.
Notes
For a gluten-free version, use 200 g gluten-free cake flour blend; the crêpes still contain eggs and dairy. I serve them with plain black tea. The rum goes into the batter and cooks in the pan; you can replace it with 15 ml milk. Choose well-drained farmer cheese, not watery, so the filling holds together in the crêpe. If the cheese is grainy, mash it more before adding the sugar. Cut very juicy fruit just before serving so it doesn't make the crêpes soggy. At breakfast, it looks like an ordinary crêpe, except the middle is filled with cheese. I hadn't even finished taking the photo when my sister had already tried one. The filled crêpes keep in a closed container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Frequently asked questions
Why do the crêpes tear when I turn them?
Wait until the edges come away on their own, then flip the crêpe with a wide spatula. A pan about 22 cm across makes the crêpes easier to handle.
Can I use ricotta in the filling?
Yes, replace the farmer cheese with 400 g well-drained ricotta. If it is very smooth, mix it directly with the sugar.
What should I do if the filling is too soft?
Mix in 1 more tablespoon of well-drained farmer cheese. The filling should sit on the spoon, not run off it.
Can I use yogurt instead of sour cream?
You can use 100 g thick Greek yogurt. Choose one with at least 10% fat so the filling doesn't become too runny.
