Blueberry Stuffing:

1 tablespoon

1/2 cup sour cream

Rhubarb Compote:
 |
2 cups cut up
fresh or frozen rhubarb or any fresh or frozen fruit
|
 |
2 tablespoons
frozen orange juice concentrate |
 |
1/4 cup sugar
|
 |
1 tablespoon
cornstarch |
- Whisk the eggs and milk together in a bowl.
Whisk in the salt, sugar, and flour. Set aside for 30 minutes.
- Melt about 1/2-teaspoon butter in a nonstick 8
to 10-inch skillet over medium heat. When it foams, pour or ladle in about 2
tablespoons of batter. Lift and swirl the pan so the batter coats the bottom.
Set pan on the burner and cook just until set and the underside is lightly
browned.
- Using a spatula or your fingers, flip and cook
until the other side is lightly browned. Transfer to a plate and continue with
remaining batter.
- Blueberry Stuffing:
In a bowl, gently fold together the blueberries, maple sugar and sour cream.
- Rhubarb Compote:
To make the compote, place the rhubarb, orange juice concentrate, sugar, and
cornstarch in a saucepan and cook until the fruit falls apart and the mixture
thickens.
- To serve, place the crepes on a platter and
schmear with marmalade. Place a spoonful of the blueberry filling down the
center and roll up the crepe. Repeat with remaining crepes. Top off with some
rhubarb compote and mint.
