  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 tsp. Salt

Instructions

  9. To make filling, plate fresh apples in a non-stick pot (or one sprayed with non-stick spray) and heat until slightly softened.
  10. Add pie filling, cinnamon and lemon juice and continue heating until low boil. Let simmer until apples are softened.
  11. Fill each crepe with 1/4 cup apple mixture.
