Rezept drucken
Traditional Austrian crepes (Palatschinken) with cream cheese and lemon filling and vanilla sauce topping.
Vorbereitungszeit 15 Minuten
Arbeitszeit 30 Minuten
Gesamt 1 Stunde 5 Minuten
Portionen 8 small crepes

Zutaten

for the crepes

  • 1 US cup flour 120g, I used wholemeal spelt flour
  • 0.85 US cup milk 200ml, 17/20 US cup
  • 1 tbsp. lemon juice
  • 1 egg 2 eggs if you want it extra fluffy
  • 1 tbsp. vanilla sugar altern. icing sugar and vanilla pod/powder
  • 1 pinch salt

for the filling

  • ~1 US cup cream cheese ~250g, curd cheese originally
  • ½ US cup sour cream if you like
  • ½ US cup cream if you like
  • 0.4 US cup icing sugar ⅖ US cups, 50g
  • 2 tbsp. lemon juice
  • 4 tbsp. raisins if you like
  • 3-4 tbsp. Rum or rum flavoring

for the vanilla sauce topping

  • 1-2 vanilla pods or 1-2 tsp. vanilla powder
  • 3 tbsp. cornstarch
  • 0.35 US cup granulated sugar 7/20 US cups, 70g
  • 4 US cup milk ~1 liter
  • 3-4 saffron threads eventually, if you want the sauce to be slightly more yellow

Anleitung

  • For the crepes dough, mix all of the ingredients with a whisk, cover and let rest for 20 minutes (in the fridge). If you use vanilla pods instead of vanilla sugar, cut them lenghtwise and scrape out the core.
  • Mix all of the ingredients for the cream cheese filling.
  • Depending on the flour, after the 20 minutes rest you may add more flour or milk to the dough.
  • In a small pan, make very thin crepes. In the blogpost above, I added a youtube tutorial on making crepes, if you didn't make some yet.
  • For the vanilla sauce, put the milk in a pot. Put aside 10 tbsp. of the milk. Heat up the pot with the milk. Mix the sugar and the cornstarch with the 10 tbsp. of milk. When the milk in the pot begins to boil, switch to lower level. Add the vanilla-starch-mix (and some saffron, eventually). Stir for a few minutes, until the sauce becomes thicker.
  • Fill the crepes with 2-3 tbsp. of cream cheese filling and form rolls like in the pictures above. Garnish with hot vanilla sauce.
