Ingredients
For apple mixture
For crêpe batter
Preparation
Make apple mixture:
Step 1
Toss apple with sugar and cinnamon. Heat butter in a nonstick skillet over moderate heat until foam subsides, then cook apple, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes. Cool.
Make batter:
Step 2
Whisk together eggs, sugar, milk, rum, and oil, then whisk in flour and salt until batter is smooth.
Make crêpes:
Step 3
Stir apple mixture into batter. Heat 1/2 tablespoon butter in a 7-inch nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until foam subsides. Ladle about 1/4 cup batter into skillet, tilting skillet to coat evenly, and quickly separate any overlapping apple slices. Cook, shaking skillet occasionally to prevent sticking and reducing heat as necessary to avoid overbrowning, until crêpe begins to set, about 1 minute.
Step 4
Sprinkle 1/2 tablespoon sugar over crêpe, then flip. Tuck 1/2 tablespoon butter under crpe and cook over moderately low heat, shaking skillet occasionally, until bottom is browned and caramelized, about 2 minutes. Invert onto a plate.
Step 5
Wipe skillet clean with a paper towel and make more crêpes in same manner.
