Ingredients
Strawberries
8 ounces (sliced)
Brown sugar
1 tablespoon (packed)
Cool Whip Free
1 cup
Flour
1/2 cup
Egg

Oil
1/2 tablespoon
Vanilla extract

Instructions
1
Prepare the filling by combining the sliced strawberries with brown sugar in a bowl. Toss gently until the strawberries are well-coated, then set aside to allow the flavors to blend.
2
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, egg, oil, vanilla extract, baking powder, cinnamon, and skim milk until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.
3
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and generously spray it with cooking spray to prevent the crepes from sticking.
4
Pour approximately 1/3 cup of the batter into the center of the hot pan. Quickly tilt and swirl the pan to spread the batter evenly across the bottom.
5
Cook the crepe for about 30-45 seconds or until the edges begin to lift slightly. Flip and cook for another 30-45 seconds on the opposite side. The crepes should be lightly golden but not browned.
6
Remove the cooked crepe to a plate and repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter, stacking the crepes neatly as you go.
7
To assemble, take one crepe and spread 1-2 spoonfuls of Cool Whip in the center. Top with a spoonful of the strawberry mixture. Fold one side of the crepe over the filling, then fold the other side over the first, creating a pocket.
8
Drizzle additional Cool Whip and some more strawberry mixture over the top. Serve warm and enjoy your scrumptious creation!
