Ingredients:
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 3 | tablespoons butter |
| 1 1/4 | shallots |
| 2 | teaspoons sugar |
| 2 | smoked link sausage |
| 1 | mushroom |
| 3 | eggs |
| 1/4 | cup heavy cream |
| 1/2 | teaspoon salt |
| 1/4 | teaspoon black pepper |
| 1 | cup spinach |
| 2 | smoked cheddar cheese |
| 10 | flour tortillas |
| sour cream |
Instructions:
-
In a skillet over medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter and sautΓ© the shallots until translucent.
-
-
Add sugar to the skillet and reduce the heat to medium. Caramelize the shallots for approximately 20 more minutes, stirring occasionally. Once caramelized, remove them from the pan and set aside.
-
Peel the smoked link sausage and finely chop it. Brown the sausage in a skillet heated over medium heat.
-
Add mushrooms to the skillet and cook until tender.
-
Add the thawed spinach and reserved caramelized shallots to the skillet with the sausage and mushrooms.
-
In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs with heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
-
In another skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook thoroughly, gently folding as it cooks.
-
While the eggs are cooking, gently fold in the sausage mixture until well combined.
-
When the eggs are almost fully cooked, add and fold in the smoked cheddar cheese until melted and blended.
-
Remove the skillet from heat.
-
Place 1/3 cup of the egg and sausage mixture in the center of each crepe or flour tortilla.
-
Fold in the sides of the crepe and roll it forward like a burrito.
-
In a skillet, melt the remaining butter. Place the crepe in the skillet and heat until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes per side. If using flour tortillas, they may take a bit longer to brown due to their thickness.
-
Serve the Crepes Florentine immediately, topped with a dollop of sour cream for extra flavor.
Enjoy this savory and satisfying dish that’s perfect for any occasion, whether it’s a quick weekday breakfast or a leisurely weekend brunch with family and friends! π³π₯π§
