Milk Crepes with Apple, Vanilla, and Raisins

Thin crepes with a sweet fruit filling. These milk crepes with apple filling are made from a simple crepe batter with a splash of boiling water added. They're cooked thin, so the filling wraps up easily. The apple filling comes together quickly and simply - you can add orange or lemon zest if you like. Both grown-ups and kids love these crepes. Serve them with tea, coffee, or milk.
