Cooking Steps
- In a small microwave-safe bowl or small pot, melt 2 tbsp butter over low heat.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 3/4 cup flour, 1 tbsp white sugar and 1/8 tsp salt.
- Whisk in 1/2 cup milk, eggs and melted butter until combined.
- Whisk in 1/2 cup water until smooth. (NOTE: The batter will be very thin.) Set aside.
- Peel, core, then cut apple into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium. When hot, add 1 tbsp butter, then swirl the pan until melted.
- Add half the maple syrup, half the brown sugar and half the cinnamon. Season with salt. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring frequently, until sugar is dissolved and mixture is slightly thickened. Immediately stir in pecans and continue to cook for 1-2 min, until mixture has thickened and pecans are coated.
- Transfer candied pecans to a parchment-lined plate.
- Heat the same pan over medium. When hot, add 1 tbsp butter, then apples and remaining cinnamon. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring frequently, until apples start to soften.
- Add remaining brown sugar and cook for 3-4 min, stirring frequently, until apples are tender.
- Transfer spiced apples to another small bowl, then cover to keep warm. Carefully wipe pan clean.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- On the prepared sheet, arrange bacon strips in a single later.
- Roast bacon in the middle of the oven for 10-12 min, rotating sheet halfway through, until crispy and cooked through.**
- Transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate, then cover with foil to keep warm.
- Reheat the same pan (from step 2) over medium. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp butter, then swirl the pan until melted.
- Tilt the pan up on an angle, then scoop 1/3 cup batter into the lower half of the pan. Immediately move the pan in a circular motion to spread the batter until it evenly covers the bottom of the pan. Cook for 1-2 min, until crepe begins to brown and the edges start to peel away easily. Flip crepe with a spatula, then continue to cook for another 30 sec-1 min.
- Transfer crepe to a plate, then repeat with 1/2 tbsp butter and 1/3 cup batter until all batter is used.
- To serve, fold each crepe into thirds, then top with candied pecans and spiced apples.
- Drizzle remaining maple syrup over top.
- Serve bacon on the side.
