Crespelle, which are thin savory crepes baked (usually in a creamy sauce) are the ultimate comfort food! This version is filled with taleggio, spinach and mushroom – a super rich dish which is perfect for the cold season!
In this recipe I show how to make everything from scratch. To be quicker, you could start by using store-bought crepes. Additionally, you can play around with the fillings, or use leftover/pre-cooked mushrooms & spinach. For the cheese, if you struggle to find taleggio, go for something rich & creamy like a brie. The only thing I would always make from scratch is the bechamel sauce – it just tastes so much better, and you can adjust the seasoning to your likes!
An extra tip: you can make a larger batch in advance, and freeze some of them (before the steps of adding the bechamel sauce and placing under the grill), or just enjoy them in the upcoming days.
And of course, the base works perfectly for both savory and sweet fillings (Nutella is the absolute best). So if you feel like using some leftovers for a sweet version, just add your filling after flipping the crepe, and skip the oven step. So bonus recipe for you here! 🙂
