2 tablespoons butter

⅓ cup brown sugar

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, for thickening)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

Make the Crepe Batter:

    - In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, melted butter, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth. Let the batter rest for 30 minutes.

      Prepare the Apple Filling:

        - In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.

          - Add the diced apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the apples are tender and caramelized. If desired, stir in cornstarch to thicken the mixture. Remove from heat and let cool.

            Cook the Crepes:

              - Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter.

                - Pour about ¼ cup of the crepe batter into the pan, swirling to coat evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges start to lift, then carefully flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter, stacking cooked crepes on a plate.

                  Prepare the Cream Filling:

                    - In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until soft peaks form.

                      Assemble the Crepe Cake:

                        - Place one crepe on a serving plate. Spread a thin layer of the cream filling on top, followed by a layer of the apple filling.

                          - Top with another crepe and repeat the layering process until all crepes are stacked, finishing with a layer of cream on top.

                            Chill and Serve:

                              - Cover the cake and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the layers to set.

                                - Before serving, garnish with fresh apple slices, a sprinkle of ground cinnamon, and a drizzle of caramel sauce if desired.

                                  Enjoy this luscious Apple Cinnamon Crepe Cake as a delightful dessert or brunch treat!
