Cinnamon Crepes with Peaches and Cream Cheese

Make the filling and crepes ahead, and chill until you're ready to use them.

Yield 6 servings (serving size: 1 crepe)

Ingredients

* 1 cup powdered sugar
* 1 cup fat-free cottage cheese
* 3/4 cup (6 ounces) 1/3-less-fat cream cheese, softened
* 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice, divided
* 3 1/2 cups sliced peeled peaches (about 1 pound)
* 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
* 1 teaspoon amaretto (almond-flavored liqueur)
* 6 Cinnamon Crepes
* 2 tablespoons sliced almonds, toasted

Preparation

Combine powdered sugar, cheeses, and 1 1/2 teaspoons juice in a food processor; process until smooth. Spoon mixture into a bowl; cover and chill 1 hour.

Combine remaining 1/2 teaspoon juice, peaches, granulated sugar, and amaretto in a bowl; toss gently. Let stand 15 minutes; toss gently.

Place one crepe on each of 6 plates. Spoon 1/2 cup cheese mixture in the center of each crepe; roll up. Top each with 1/2 cup peach mixture; sprinkle with 1 teaspoon almonds. Serve immediately.
