[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Itâs October, and if youâre anything like we are, youâve been knee-deep in pumpkin for weeks. But there are other stars of the season, and they too come in the form of fruit. (Yup, you heard it hereâpumpkins are fruit. Mind blown much? Same.) Of course, weâre talking about apples, which inevitably means weâre talking about pie. Our variation gets a high-class twist from replacing the crust with a crepe, so you get more fruit, less sugar, and a new cooking skill from the deal. These are apple pie crepes, and youâre about to be amazed. Letâs get started.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_tabs style=”modern” shape=”square” active_section=”1″][vc_tta_section title=”Ingredients” tab_id=”1502735775621-45667c6e-20ea”][vc_custom_heading text=”Filling” font_container=”tag:p|font_size:20|text_align:left|color:%23000000″ google_fonts=”font_family:Roboto%20Condensed%3A300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C700%2C700italic|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal”][vc_column_text]
This healthier, more convenient twist on pie puts the focus on the fruit, so youâre eating more apples and less sugar. Apples are healthy for all sorts of reasonsâtheyâre filled with fiber and Vitamin C. The crepe itself has egg and whole-wheat flour for a bit of protein and a lot of enjoyment. You fancy.

âDessert doesnât always mean lapsing into a sugar coma; sometimes apples and cinnamon are just what your sweet tooth needs. Apple crepes are a nice change from heavier, sweeter desserts like vanilla ice cream or chocolate pudding. These just have a few ingredients, with nothing too heavy. Plus the smell of apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon is a heavenly comboâitâll legit make your neighbors jealous!â
Cost
This simple dessert can be made for under $10 if you have some basic ingredients on hand (like the flour, cinnamon, and baking powder). It makes a lot of servings, so you and your friends could easily have a satisfying treat without a lot of prep or cleanupâor just freeze the leftovers.
Convenience
It might sound complicated, but crepes are actually super simple and practical to make. From start to finish, you might need 15 minutes at the most. And if you have a good nonstick omelet pan, itâs even easier. Plus, I love that itâs so versatileâonce you learn the basic crepe recipe, the possibilities are endless for fillings.
Taste
You can never go wrong with apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon, especially in the fall. The crepe was light but satisfying; the apples were sweet and just crunchy enough. The apples were a great break from the popular pumpkin flavor.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
