Homemade Manicotti Crepes 🍝
Have you ever tried something new in the kitchen knowing it might take a few tries?
After making homemade ricotta,
I decided to take it one step further —
manicotti made with crepes.
This was a first.
A little trial and error.
A few thick ones.
A few that leaned more pancake than crepe.
I adjusted as I went —
a splash more milk,
lower heat,
faster swirl, quicker flip.
And then… it clicked.
Light, thin, and finally just right.
I love these moments in the kitchen —
learning as you go,
figuring it out in real time,
and trusting that even the imperfect ones
are still going to be delicious.
Next step: filling them with that homemade ricotta
and turning them into something special.
Have you ever had a recipe that only worked once you found your rhythm?
