A savoury crêpe cake that tastes like pizza…who wouldn’t love it!
Crespelle/crêpes are stacked with a thin layer of tomato sauce and a sprinkling of mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses (and prosciutto, which I didn’t include) separating each. The “cake” is then baked briefly in the oven to heat it through.
The recipe includes directions for one of the author’s fabulous fresh tasting tomato sauces, this one flavoured with a little garlic and parsley, but any good tomato sauce would work as long as it’s not too chunky.
An excellent alternative to pasta and served with a salad, a very nice meal. Delicious hot or at room temperature.
