Spiced Plum Crepes with Port Syrup

1. 1

   Put the plums, port, water, brown sugar, cinnamon, cloves, and peppercorns in a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

2. 2

   Reduce the heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook until the plums are soft but still hold their shape, 12 to 15 minutes.

3. 3

   Transfer the plums to a bowl with a slotted spoon, remove the spices, and cover to keep warm.

4. 4

   Increase the heat to medium-high and cook the remaining liquid until thick and syrupy, 3 to 4 minutes.

5. 5

   To serve, put a crepe on each of 4 dessert plates.

6. 6

   Put a spoonful of plums on one quarter of each crepe.

7. 7

   Then, fold the crepe over the filling to create a triangle shape.

8. 8

   (The crepes can also be served folded in half like an omelet, or rolled.)

9. 9

   Top each filled crepe with a dollop of whipped cream, then drizzle the warm port syrup over the top of each.
