This recipe is from Farmstead Chef authors Lisa Kivirist and John Ivanko. They write:

Don’t freak when we suggest try cooking with your parents — or in-laws. That’s what happened after Lisa’s mom took a tumble and busted up her hand. Flipping a pancake with two hands is awkward enough; don't try it with one! So during a family visit, we stepped to the plate and took over the flippin’. That’s when we found this rolled pancake recipe, an easy standby to the French crepes we’d normally make with special gear and some techniques we’ve still not completely mastered. After a quick lesson from Lisa’s mom on how to swirl around the batter in the 10-inch skillet, we were good to go.

Ingredients

batter
1 cup flour
1 cup Organic Valley Milk
3 Organic Valley Eggs
¹⁄₂ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
2 tablespoons Organic Valley Butter, melted
toppings
1 cup Organic Valley Heavy Cream, whipped
powdered sugar or cinnamon
filling
1 cup fresh organic fruit or preserves

Directions

Blend all batter ingredients in a blender. Let batter sit on counter for about 1 hour.
Melt an additional 1 tablespoon of butter in pan. Pour approximately ¼ cup batter into pan for one pancake. Cook on both sides until brown.
Remove pancake from pan and spread filling all over one side of pancake, leaving about 1/2" at edges for easier handling.
Roll up pancake. Place on heatproof serving plate in a warm 200° oven until all pancakes are made.

Serving Suggestions

Sprinkle with organic powdered sugar before serving.

Looking for something a little more decadent? As an alternative to fruit filling, Lisa and John recommend using ½ cup chocolate syrup, or that European standby, Nutella.
