Instructions

In a blender, combine eggs, egg yolk, milk, water, melted butter, sugar, salt, and vanilla. Blend until foamy.
Add flour and blend again until smooth. Let batter rest for 1 hour.
Meanwhile, prepare the apple filling: toss diced apples with apple pie spice. In a saucepan, melt butter, stir in brown sugar, then add apples. Simmer for 15–20 minutes until soft and coated in sauce. Keep warm.
Heat a small nonstick pan and lightly butter it. Pour in 2 tablespoons of batter, swirl to coat evenly, and cook until top loses its shine (1–2 minutes).
Flip and cook for 15–30 seconds more. Transfer to a plate and keep warm in a 250°F oven with parchment between crepes. Repeat with remaining batter.
Spoon apple filling down the center of each crepe, sprinkle with pecans, and fold sides over.
Top with vanilla ice cream or yogurt, drizzle with apple caramel sauce, and garnish with extra pecans and cinnamon if desired.

Notes

Batter can be made ahead and stored overnight in the fridge.

Use Granny Smith or Pink Lady apples for best flavor and texture.

Crepes freeze well for up to 2 months when layered with parchment.

For a lighter option, top with Greek yogurt and honey instead of ice cream.

Recipe can be made gluten-free with a flour substitute, or dairy-free with plant-based butter and milk.
