CREPE NUT ROLL-UPS

 

Crepe:

1 pack                       MAYA Original ‘Fluffy n’ Tasty’ Hotcake Mix 125 g

2                                  eggs

1 ¼ cups                   milk or water

2 tablespo

ons     melted butter       

                                    oil, as needed for greasing

 

Filling:

60 grams                  chopped toasted walnuts

60 grams                  chopped toasted cashew nuts

60 grams                  chopped toasted pistachio nuts

1 cup                         confectioners’ sugar

melted butter, as needed

 

Syrup:

1 cup                         white sugar

1 cup                         water

 

 

            Prepare crepe by mixing all ingredients, except oil, in a bowl until well-blended and smooth. Pour ¼ cup batter into a preheated nonstick pan or greased flat skillet. Tilt pan from side to side to cover the bottom of the pan. Cook until light golden brown. Flip the crepe carefully to cook the other side. Cool and set aside.           

Combine all ingredients for the filling in a bowl.    Preheat oven to 350°F/177°C. Place a piece of crepe on a plate and spread a thin layer of filling on top. Fold in the ends and roll. Brush the edges with melted butter to seal. Arrange the roll-ups, with the seams down, on a cookie sheet and bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown.

Prepare syrup by combining sugar and water in a pot without stirring. Bring to a boil until amber in color. Continue cooking until the syrup reaches a thread-like consistency. Remove from heat. Cut roll-ups into bite-sized pieces and dip in syrup or drizzle top with syrup. Serve.
