Palatschinken with Apricot Filling Ingredients

-- For Pancakes -- Powdered sugar (for dusting)
1 egg -- For Apricot Compote --
1 teaspoon sugar 1 pound Apricots (about 6 medium), sliced in eighths
pinch of salt 1/2 cup Sugar
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour 2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
3 tablespoons butter , melted4 tablespoon Orange Juice
2/3 cup milk 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 tablespoon butter (save for frying pan)

Instructions for Palatschinken with Apricot Filling

1. In a small stainless steel mixing bowl, whisk together the ingredients in the order given above, creating a smooth batter. Put the batter through a strainer to get rid of any lumps, cover it with plastic and let it rest in the refrigerator for one hour. If you prefer, you can prepare the batter the day before you plan to make your crepes.

2. Remove the batter from the refrigerator and stir. It should be only just a little thicker than fresh whole milk.

3. Brush a 12 inch non-stick frying pan with butter and put it on a low to medium heat. Ladle approximately 1 ounce of the batter into the pan, twirling the pan by hand in a circular motion to create a very thin crepe.Cook crepe until golden, approximately 1 minute on each side. As with most pancakes or waffles, the first one never gets as brown as the later ones.

Preparation for Compote:

1. In a medium saucepan, combine orange juice, lemon juice, sugar and the 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract. Bring to a boil. Add all of the sliced apricots and cook for 2 to 3minutes more, or until the apricots have softened.

2. Presentation: Put 2 tablespoons of the apricot preserves into a crepe. Roll the crepe or fold it in half twice to make a quarter. Dust the crepe with powdered sugar.
