Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Butter or oil two baking dishes. Steam the asparagus until tender, about five minutes. Divide into 12 portions, and place a portion on each crêpe. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, gruyère and chives. Roll up and place in the prepared baking dishes.
- Step 2
Sprinkle the Parmesan over the crêpes, and drizzle on the olive oil. Bake 15 to 20 minutes until bubbling; the edges of the crêpes should be just beginning to crisp. Serve hot.
Advance preparation: You can store the crêpes in the refrigerator or the freezer for a couple of days. Stack them between pieces of parchment or wax paper so they don’t stick together. The assembled crêpes can be refrigerated for up to a day.

Looks good. For the herb crepes should we use dry herbs, fresh herbs? Herb De Provence? Give us a hint. I'm tasting them already but haven't made them yet...it's my vivid imagination.
This is so simple and easy and so very delicious. The herb crepe is a perfect partner for the asparagus and the Gruyere - matches made in heaven. And I love it that the dish can be assembled, and then can wait and be heated right before serving. Any novice cook can make this and look like a pro.
This is delicious. I made these last summer and couldn't find the recipe in my all too large stash. I am drowning in asparagus from my own plants and need to make these again to share.
Excellent meal, for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Didn't have chives, so crumbled some Bourson Chive cheese in them. Very tasty!
