Ingredients
3 beaten eggs
1-1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour or all-purpose flour
1-1/2 cups milk
1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup snipped fresh sage, basil, or mint
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
1 cup sliced strawberries
1 medium banana, sliced
1/2 cup peeled and sliced kiwifruit
1 cup granola
1 cup vanilla low-fat yogurt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions
1. For crepes: In a large bowl, combine eggs, flour, milk, melted butter, herb, salt, and white pepper. Beat with a wire whisk until well mixed. Cover and refrigerate for 15 to 30 minutes.
2. For fruit filling: In a medium bowl, combine the strawberries, banana, and kiwifruit. Gently stir in the granola, yogurt and cinnamon. Cover and chill while cooking the crepes.
3. Heat lightly greased 10-inch crepe pan or nonstick skillet with flared sides over medium heat. Remove from heat. Ladle in 1/2 cup batter. Lift and tilt pan to spread the batter. Return to heat and cook until the bottom of crepe is light brown. Flip crepe over with a smooth motion. Continue cooking about 2 minutes or until second side is light brown. Invert pan over paper towels to remove crepe. Repeat with remaining batter, greasing pan occasionally.
4. To assemble, spoon about 1/2 cup of the fruit filling along center of one side of crepe. Fold the two opposite edges so they overlap over filling. Serve immediately. Makes 6 servings.
Test Kitchen Tip
For a thinner crepe, use less batter. Use regular butter and omit the salt, if you like.
