The Canadian Maritimes enjoy a bounty of succulent seafood. Here is our recipe for Atlantic Canadian Lobster Crêpes!

Ingredients

Crêpes
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 tbsp white sugar
½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
2 cups milk
2 tbsp melted butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 eggs

Lobster Fill
2 cups lobster meat cooked and chopped
¼ cup butter
2 tbsp minced onion
2 tbsp chives
1 cup mushroom
¼ cup flour
1 cup warm milk
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
½ cup yellow peppers

Instructions

Crepes
-Mix dry ingredients together. In a separate bowl blend the butter and milk together. Whisk the eggs and add to the liquid. Add vanilla to liquids and stir. Blend in the dry ingredients and beat until a smooth batter is formed. To cook the crepes, spread about 3 tablespoons of batter in a lightly buttered skillet. Cook for about 1 ½  minutes, then turn the crepe and cook for about 1 minute over medium heat. These can be prepared ahead and kept in a covered container with a piece of wax paper between each one.

Lobster Fill
Melt butter in a skillet. Add onion, chives, mushrooms and cook over medium heat until the onion is translucent. Put flour and milk in a covered jar and shake. Add milk mixture to the skillet with vegetables and heat until thickened. Add lemon juice, zest, lobster and pepper. Cook just until the pepper is softened — about five more minutes on medium heat.
