Preparation

Step 1
Peel the apples and core them. Quarter each and cut each quarter in 4 equal slices.
Step 2
Preheat oven to high broil. Place flour in a mixing bowl. Add sugar, egg and vanilla while stirring with a wire whisk. Add cream and beat to make batter as smooth as possible.
Step 3
Heat 1 teaspoon of butter in an 8-inch nonstick skillet. Add 4 slices of apple and brown lightly on both sides on medium heat. Arrange the slices in center forming a star. Pour one-quarter of the batter evenly over the apples, keeping star intact. Cook about one minute or more until light brown.
Step 4
Transfer to plate, reversing the crepe. Continue making crepes with remaining ingredients. Pour a little warm sauce over all.

These were difficult to work with as crepes. The apples caramelized (yum) and stuck to the pan. At last we separated them into apple filling and crepe and that worked better. The batter tastes custard/pudding like. They were ugly, but delicious. I will definitely make again but modify.
