Servings: 8 crêpes Ingredients: 8 bacon slices, cooked crisp 1 1/3 cups (200 g) Cora plain crêpe mix 1 1/3 cups (325 ml) milk (or plant-based beverage) 1 cup coco-hazelnut spread 24 regular-sized marshmallows Preparation: Cook the bacon until nice and crispy. Set aside on a plate. In a large bowl, whip the Cora crêpe mix with the milk until the batter is smooth. Lightly oil a small non-stick skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Add 1/4 (60 ml) cup of the batter to the centre of the pan and rotate the pan to spread the mixture evenly. When the edge lifts away easily and starts to brown, after about 1 minute, flip the crêpe over using a spatula and cook for a further 30 seconds or until cooked through. Remove crêpe from skillet. Repeat until all the batter has been used. Assemble each crêpe by placing it on a plate and spreading ¼ (60ml) cup of the coco-hazelnut spread in the centre from top to bottom. Next place 1 slice of bacon and then 3 marshmallows on top of the spread in that order. Fold in two sides of the crêpe to make a rim (it will help keep the filling inside) and roll up. Wrap each roll in a sheet of aluminum foil. Using tongs, place them close to the fire and leave for about 30 to 45 minutes. This will heat the crêpes up just enough to melt the inside. Enjoy your campfire treat!

Place the Cora crêpe mix and milk in a bowl. Whisk vigorously together until the batter is smooth and consistent. Lightly oil a small non-stick skillet and heat on medium-high. Pour 1/8 cup (30 ml) of the batter in the centre of the skillet and rotate to spread evenly. When the edge of the crêpe starts to brown and lifts up easily, after about 1 minute, turn it over using a spatula and continue cooking for another 30 seconds, or until cooked through. Remove crêpe from pan. Repeat the above steps for the remaining batter. Refrigerate crêpes for about 10 minutes so they are easier to cut. Once cooled, cut the crêpes into 4 in the same direction. Julienne each section into 3 mm-wide strips. Place crêpe strips in a mixing bowl. Spray with a bit of cooking spray and gently toss. The strips shouldn’t stick together. If they do, repeat operation, spraying and tossing them again until they are lightly covered in oil. Spread them out on a baking sheet. Bake the strips for 10–12 minutes, turning halfway through. They should be golden brown and crisp. Let the strips cool for a few minutes before using them as a topping for your salad.   You can now use these julienned crêpes as a satisfying topping for all your salads!
