Savory Mushroom and Spinach Crepe Rolls with Baked Egg Recipe

ByEthan Lark December 14, 2025December 14, 2025

Introduction

Savory crepe rolls offer a delightful blend of tender crepes wrapped around a flavorful mixture of mushrooms, spinach, and cheeses. Finished with a baked egg on top, this dish is perfect for brunch or a special dinner.

The dish features a single large crepe-like pancake folded to form a shallow bowl shape, with a light golden-brown, slightly crispy edge. Inside, there is a cooked egg with a bright yellow runny yolk that spreads outward, surrounded by sautéed mushrooms and greens, mostly dark brown and deep green in color. The top layer of the crepe is covered with a partially melted, creamy white cheese speckled with small toasted brown flakes. Finely chopped green chives are sprinkled across the top, adding a touch of fresh color. The plate is white, with a white marbled textured surface underneath, and a silver fork is placed beside the dish. Fresh parsley sprigs are placed around the plate for decoration.

Ingredients

2 large eggs
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups whole milk
Butter, to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cups Baby Bella mushrooms
2 tablespoons shallot, chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
1 teaspoon rosemary leaves
1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 lemon, juiced
7 cups fresh baby spinach
Salt, to taste
Ground black pepper, to taste
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
2 ounces Parmesan cheese
5 large eggs
Fresh chives, to taste
Sea salt flakes, to taste

Instructions

Step 1: In a blender, combine 2 large eggs, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1 cup flour, and 1 1/4 cups whole milk. Blend until smooth and let the batter rest for 1 hour until it reaches a heavy cream consistency.
Step 2: Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and brush with butter. Pour 1/4 cup of batter, swirling to evenly coat the pan. Cook until golden on one side, flip and cook 30 seconds more. Remove and repeat to make 8 crepes.
Step 3: Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 4 cups Baby Bella mushrooms and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until mushrooms reduce in size.
Step 4: Stir in 2 tablespoons shallot, 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic, 1 1/2 teaspoons thyme, 1 teaspoon rosemary, and 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter. Cook together for 30 seconds, then season with salt, pepper, and the juice of 1/2 lemon.
Step 5: Add 7 cups fresh baby spinach and cook until wilted. Stir well and remove from heat.
Step 6: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and position a rack in the lowest row.
Step 7: On a clean surface, overlap two crepes by about 3 inches. Spoon 3 tablespoons of the mushroom mixture in a row down the center, then sprinkle with 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese.
Step 8: Beat one large egg in a small bowl and brush the edges of the crepes with the egg wash.
Step 9: Carefully roll the crepes into a log, then coil the log into a round shape. Repeat with remaining crepes and filling.
Step 10: Place the rolls in a 10-inch cast-iron pan. Use the back of a spoon to make a small divot in the center of each roll.
Step 11: Brush the tops with egg wash and sprinkle generously with 2 ounces grated Parmesan cheese.
Step 12: Crack one large egg into each divot carefully.
Step 13: Bake rolls for 13 to 15 minutes until egg whites are opaque but yolks remain runny, and crepes turn crispy and golden.
Step 14: Garnish with fresh chives and sea salt flakes before serving immediately.

Tips & Variations

For extra richness, add a splash of cream to the crepe batter.
Substitute feta with goat cheese or ricotta for a different creamy texture.
Use baby kale instead of spinach for a heartier filling.
If you don’t have a cast-iron pan, a baking dish will work fine.

Storage

Store any leftover crepe rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a low oven or microwave to preserve crispness. It’s best to enjoy this dish fresh for optimal texture and flavor.
