Crêpes with apples & candied kumquats

I like to serve these tempting crêpes with a vanilla Crème anglaise for an indulgent treat.

SERVES 4

2 cooking apples, preferably Bramleys

30g (2 tbsp) butter

8 candied kumquats

4 warm crêpes

icing (confectioners’) sugar, to dust

Prepare the filling before you cook the crêpes. Peel and core the apples, cut into segments and put in a saucepan with the butter and 50 ml (3½ tbsp) water. Stew until soft, then purée using a hand-held blender to make a smooth compote.

Cut the kumquats into 2 – 3 mm (imagein) thick rounds and mix them into the warm apple compote. Spread over the middle of the crêpes, then roll them up.

Put a filled crêpe on each warm plate and dust lightly with icing sugar. Serve at once.
