Monte cristo crepes stuffed with ham and swiss cheese wrapped around a delicate crepe topped with strawberry preserves and a dusting of powdered sugar. A savory and sweet crepe for breakfast, brunch, or lunch!
In a mixing bowl, whisk flour, sugar, salt, milk, water, egg and butter until smooth.
On medium heat, lightly grease a skillet with butter and add ¼-1/3 cup of batter into the pan and twirl the pan to spread the batter evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes.
Flip the crepe and immediately layer a slice of ham and swiss cheese.
Fold the crepe in half and then in half again. Repeat with remaining batter.
Dust powdered sugar and drizzle strawberry preserves on top.
Notes
Use a nonstick pan. This will make it easy to lift the delicate crepe and prevent sticking.
It doesn't need to be perfect! The first one or two crepes might not look the best but it will still be delicious! Don't worry if the crepe isn't perfectly round or level, just try your best!
Make the batter the night before and refrigerate to make breakfast easier.
To drizzle strawberry preserves on top of the crepe, warm up the preserves and place it in a Ziploc or piping bag. Cut a corner off and drizzle the preserves over the crepes.
