Steemit Culinary Challenge #19: Goat cheese crepes with figs

My very first entry for the Steemit Culinary Challenge! And what a nice challenge it is this week: Crepes!

My entry is a goat cheese crepe with figs (amongst some other things). It was inspired by a pancake restaurant we visited a while ago. Let's have a look at the recipe! (My images will show half the amount of the ingredients, as I was just cooking this for two.)

Ingredients
For the batter:

• 125g Flour (250g if you skip the Oatmeal)
• 125g Oatmeal (optional)
• 2 eggs
• 500ml Milk
• Pinch of salt
• 1 Tsp cinnamon (optional)
• 1 Tsp vanilla exctract (optional)
• Butter or oil for baking

For the garnishing:

• 100g Goat cheese
• 60g Walnuts
• 75g Rucola
• ~6 Dried figs
• 4 Tbsp Honey
• 1 1/2 Tbsp Balsamic vinegar
• 1/2 Tsp Dried and crushed thyme

1. Roughly chop up the walnuts (don't make them too small).
2. Cut the dried figs into smaller pieces.
   
3. Mix the honey, balsamic vinegar and thyme.
   
4. Mix all ingredients for the batter, until there are no lumps left.
   
5. Heat up some butter/oil in a skillet on medium fire and pour of the some batter in. When the top has dried, flip the crepe and bake for another few minutes, until nicely brown.
   
6. Once all crepes are baked, time to garnish them:
   

• Layer a crepe with some rucola leaves.
  
• Add a bit of the walnuts and figs.
• Crumple up some of the goat cheese to top this off.
• Sprinkle with the honey mixture.
  

Done! I hope you will all try this out yourself (I can definitely recommend it!).
