Fruit Wraps (Crepes)

Recipes‎ > ‎

We used whole wheat bread, fruit and yogurt to remake crepes :)

Ingredients

1 Loaf of whole wheat bread

2 lbs of strawberries

4 Mangos

6 Kiwis

Granola

2 Blueberry yogurts

Directions

Cut the crust off each piece of bread
Cut up the strawberries, kiwi, and mango
Place the bread on the counter so it is in the shape of a diamond
Place strawberries, mango and kiwi in the top corner of the bread
Fold both corners toward the center and then fold the bottom up and pinch them all together so it stays closed
Put yogurt on the top of the crepe and then sprinkle granola over it

~Hint and Tips~

(from Emily)

- Have the kids put their own toppings on their crepe and wrap them so they can be involved

- Make sure you cut the fruits small enough so they fit in the bread wrap

(from Li-Li)

- Make sure the fruits you choose to put in (should you not like the ones in the ingredients) are not too juicy because they will make the bread will be soggy

- If you have time after teaching them this way of wrapping the snack, ask them to try making their own.

(from Kim)

- Based on Li-Li's idea, you can also hold a contest to see which of the wrapping styles they like best

1. I liked them. I just did not like the cereal stuff (granola). My favorite fruit in it was the mangos
2. It looks like a tamale
3. [was able to recall how to make them] I would try to make it. I think my mom would be proud if I made healthy snacks for lunch or something. I think if I ask my mom, I might be able to find time to make it for my cousins when they come over.
