Serve the warm crepes immediately with a generous dollop of non-fat Greek yogurt and the warm maple-blueberry compote. Enjoy! (2 minutes)
For extra flavor, add a splash of vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon to the crepe batter.
If the batter seems too thick, add a tablespoon or two more of milk until it reaches a pourable consistency.
To keep the crepes warm while cooking the rest, place them in a preheated oven at 200°F (93°C).
Experiment with different fillings! Try sliced bananas and Nutella, fresh strawberries and whipped cream, or savory fillings like ham and cheese.
