  • 2 firm pears
  • 150 g Sugar
  • 60 g Flour
  • 7-10 Tbsp Salt
  • 150 ml Milk
  • 1 TABLESPOON Oil
  • 1 egg (size M)
  • 20 g Butter
  • 50 g Fresh cream
  • 3 TSP clarified butter
  • 7-10 Tbsp Mint

Directions

  1. 1

    Peel, quarter and core the pears. Boil 250 ml water with 75 g sugar. Simmer the pears for about 10 minutes, remove from the heat and let the pears cool down in the stock.

  2. 2

    Mix flour, 1 pinch of salt and milk in a bowl. Stir in oil and egg and let it swell for about 30 minutes. Drain the pears and collect the stock. Cut quarters into thin slices.

  3. 3

    Caramelise 75 g sugar in a pan until golden brown. Add butter and crème fraîche and simmer gently until the caramel has dissolved. Add the pears and simmer at low heat for 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

    If the caramel sauce becomes too firm, add some pear stock by the spoonful.

  5. 5

    Heat the clarified butter in portions in a large coated pan. Bake 12 small crêpes (approx. 6 cm Ø each) from the dough. Place 3 crêpes on top of each other, cover with pears and sprinkle with caramel.
