Ingredients

• All-purpose flour - 100 grams
• Eggs - 2 large
• Milk - 250 ml
• Salt - 1/4 teaspoon
• Ricotta cheese - 200 grams
• Honey - 2 tablespoons
• Fresh spinach - 50 grams
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Black pepper - to taste
• Parmesan cheese - 20 grams, grated

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, eggs, milk, and salt until smooth to create the crepe batter.
2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with a bit of olive oil.
3. Pour a ladle of batter into the skillet, swirling to coat the bottom evenly. Cook for about 2 minutes, or until the edges start to lift, then flip and cook for another minute. Repeat with the remaining batter.
4. In a separate bowl, mix ricotta cheese, honey, chopped spinach, black pepper, and half of the grated Parmesan until well combined.
5. Place a generous spoonful of the ricotta mixture onto one half of each crepe, fold over, and cook for an additional minute to warm through.
6. Serve warm, drizzled with extra honey and topped with remaining Parmesan.
