Yes! Refrigeration allows the gluten in the wheat to relax so that the color, texture, and taste are improved. The cr\u00eapes will also be fluffier and easier to remove from the pan.<\/center><\/div>\n<p>After the batter has been thoroughly refrigerated, spoon about 1\/3 cup into a hot, lightly oiled non-stick pan. Very quickly swirl the pan so the batter spreads to the edges and thins out. After about two minutes, the cr\u00eape should be solid. Carefully use a spatula to peel up all the edges and ensure it isn&#8217;t sticking, then flip. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until both sides are golden brown. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/oneingredientchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/batter.jpg\" alt=\"batter\" width=\"600\" height=\"415\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-862\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oneingredientchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/batter.jpg 600w, https:\/\/oneingredientchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/batter-300x208.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oneingredientchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/batter-364x252.jpg 364w, https:\/\/oneingredientchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/batter-313x216.jpg 313w, https:\/\/oneingredientchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/batter-69x48.jpg 69w, https:\/\/oneingredientchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/batter-139x96.jpg 139w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>For the Cashew Cream&#8230;<\/h4>\n<div class=\"content-box-green\">\n<div class=\"one-half first\">\n<ul>\n<li>1 1\/2 cups cashews<\/li>\n<li>2\/3 cup water<\/li>\n<li>Juice of one lemon<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"one-half\">\n<ul>\n<li>1 teaspoon vanilla<\/li>\n<li>2 tablespoons liquid sweetner (maple syrup or agave)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve never tried making cream out of cashews, you&#8217;re missing out. This simple recipe is perfect for cr\u00eapes, pancakes, and anywhere else you&#8217;d use a slightly sweet <em>Cr\u00e8me Anglaise<\/em> type of cream. And it&#8217;s so simple to make:<\/p>\n<p>Mix all the ingredients in a blender until completely smooth. Then refrigerate for 2-4 hours. Like with the cr\u00eapes, don&#8217;t skip the chilling; this cream tastes fine straight out of the blender, but after chilling for 2-5 hours it develops a much richer flavor. <\/p>\n<p>Ideally, let this chill at the same time as the cr\u00eape batter. Prepare them both and then go for a nice long run: those last few miles will be so much easier when you know there&#8217;s cr\u00eape batter waiting for you back home \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<h4>For the Strawberry Awesome-Sauce&#8230;<\/h4>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/oneingredientchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/sauce.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-861\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oneingredientchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/sauce.jpg 600w, https:\/\/oneingredientchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/sauce-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oneingredientchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/sauce-192x144.jpg 192w, https:\/\/oneingredientchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/sauce-384x288.jpg 384w, https:\/\/oneingredientchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/sauce-561x421.jpg 561w, https:\/\/oneingredientchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/sauce-364x273.jpg 364w, https:\/\/oneingredientchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/sauce-313x235.jpg 313w, https:\/\/oneingredientchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/sauce-64x48.jpg 64w, https:\/\/oneingredientchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/sauce-128x96.jpg 128w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-box-green\">\n<div class=\"one-half first\">\n<ul>\n<li>2 cups chopped strawberries<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 cup red wine<\/li>\n<li>2 tablespoons maple syrup<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"one-half\">\n<ul>\n<li>juice of one lemon<\/li>\n<li>1 teaspoon cornstarch dissolved in water<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>This sauce is basically a simple strawberry reduction, but awesome-sauce sounds so much cooler, doesn&#8217;t it?  The wine and acid from the lemons mix with the strawberries into a gooey sauce that is begging to be spooned over a warm cr\u00eape. <\/p>\n<p>Make this sauce as you&#8217;re about ready to start cooking the cr\u00eapes. Heat a wide pan and add all ingredients except the cornstarch. Cook for 10-15 minutes, add the cornstarch to thicken, and continue cooking until most of the liquid has evaporated and the sauce thickens to your liking. It&#8217;s that simple!<\/p>\n<p>When your cr\u00eapes finish cooking, spread one side generously with cashew cream and fold however you&#8217;d like (in half, in thirds, or rolled like mine).
