Special Precautions and Tips:
- Make sure the crepes are cooked through before rolling them up, otherwise they will be difficult to handle.
- If the crepes start to stick to the pan, grease the pan with a little more butter.
- You can use any type of fruit compote you like. If you're using fresh fruit, be sure to cook it down with a little sugar until it becomes a thick sauce.
