My family absolutely loves these Crepes Stuffed with Ham & Cheese. It’s like a crepe casserole or lasagna! I mean who doesn’t love the combination of ham and cheese with creamy béchamel sauce? Comfort food for breakfast!
Start by making a typical crepe batter from eggs, milk, butter, flour and salt. Cook the crepes in a skillet with hot oil. Make a béchamel sauce from butter, flour, milk and season with some salt and nutmeg. Assemble the crepe casserole by building up layers of crepes with béchamel sauce, ham and cheese. Bake in the oven and to serve, garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
To make the Crepes Stuffed with Ham & Cheese, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 350 °F.
Whisk 8 eggs with 15 fluid ounces of milk and 3 fluid ounces of melted butter together in a large bowl. Add 10½ ounces of flour and a pinch of salt. Continue to whisk the batter until smooth.
Cook the pancakes one at a time. Heat some oil in a nonstick skillet. Pour in enough batter to make a thin crepe. Fry on both sides until golden brown. Repeat until you have 12 crepes.
Place 2 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan and melt over medium heat. Stir in 2 tablespoons of flour and whisk it vigorously until combined and smooth. Pour in 12 fluid ounces of milk and season to taste with a pinch each of salt and nutmeg. Continue to stir with a whisk over a low heat until the bechamel sauce thickens.
Spread a spoonful of bechamel sauce in the middle of each crepe. Place 3 slices of ham and 2 half slices of cheese on top of the sauce and fold the crepe. Repeat until all ingredients are used.
Place six of the crepes in the bottom of a baking or casserole dish. Spoon half of the remaining bechamel on top of the crepes and spread out evenly. Scatter Gouda cheese over the sauce.
Place the remaining 6 crepes on top of the Gouda. Repeat the process with béchamel sauce and shredded cheese.
Bake the crepe casserole in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Serve garnished with fresh parsley.
