These Warm Apricot and Cream Crêpes from Patricia Trijbits – founder of Where the Pancakes Are restaurants – make a speedy yet showstopping pud. Search for Patricia’s Ultimate Pancake Batter to make the perfect pancakes for this recipe. Using ready-made compote is the secret to keeping things quick, but warming it through with ginger, vanilla or cardamom takes the flavour up a notch.

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter, for frying
  • 600g jar Bonne Maman Apricot Compote (or another flavour)
  • ¼ tsp grated fresh ginger, (optional)
  • 200g flaked almonds
  • 300ml double cream
  • 15g caster sugar
  • 100g greek yoghurt
  • 1 lemon, zested

Method

Step 1

Wipe a 20cm frying pan with butter or oil using kitchen towel; place on a medium-high heat. Pour in 60ml of the batter, tilting the pan to create a thin layer. Cook for 1-2 mins until the underside is golden. Flip the pancake over; cook for 1-2 mins. Repeat to use up the batter; keep the pancakes warm under foil.

Step 2

Warm the compote in a pan over a very low heat, adding the ginger, vanilla or cardamom, if using. Meanwhile, toast the almonds in a small pan over a medium heat, until golden.

Step 3

Put the cream and sugar into a mixing bowl and use an electric whisk to whisk until firm, then gently mix in the greek yoghurt.

Step 4

To serve, place a pancake on a plate, spread 2tbsp of the compote over half, then fold over. Dollop some cream on top and scatter with almonds. Finish with lemon zest, if you like.
