Diabetic Grape Crepes

Another one from Diabetic Living On Line web site.

Grape Crepes
Crème de cassis is a liqueur with a delicate black currant flavor.
SERVINGS: 8 (1-crepe) servings
CARB GRAMS PER SERVING: 14

1/2     cup fat-free milk
1/3     cup white whole wheat flour or all-purpose flour
1/4     cup refrigerated or frozen egg product, thawed, or 1 egg, lightly beaten
1/8     teaspoon salt
1     teaspoon canola oil
3     cups seedless red grapes, halved
3     tablespoons crème de cassis or grape juice
2     tablespoons water
1     teaspoon cornstarch
1/2     cup light dairy sour cream
1     tablespoon sugar or sugar substitute* equivalent to 1 tablespoon sugar

1. For crepe batter, in a medium bowl, whisk together milk, flour, egg, oil, and salt until smooth.

2. Lightly oil a 7- to 8-inch nonstick skillet with flared sides. Heat over medium-high heat. Remove from heat. Spoon in about 2 tablespoons of the crepe batter; lift and tilt skillet to spread batter. Return to heat; cook until top is set and dry (30 to 45 seconds). (Or cook on a crepe maker according to manufacturer's directions.) Invert skillet over paper towels; remove crepe. Repeat with remaining batter to make 8 crepes, oiling skillet occasionally. Set crepes aside.

3. In a large skillet, combine grapes, crème de cassis, the water, and cornstarch. Cook and stir until mixture just comes to boiling; reduce heat. Cook and stir for 4 to 6 minutes more or until grapes are softened but still hold their shape and mixture is slightly thickened.

4. In a small bowl, combine sour cream and sugar. To serve, spread unbrowned sides of crepes with sour cream mixture. Fold crepes as desired. Top with grape mixture. Makes 8 (1-crepe) servings

*Sugar Substitutes: Choose from Splenda Granular, Sweet 'N Low bulk or packets, or Equal spoonful or packets. Follow package directions to use product amount equivalent to 1 tablespoon sugar.
