¼ polenta coarse cornmeal
½ teaspoon vanilla
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
²/₃ cup spelt whole grain flour

Heat an 8-inch nonstick skillet with a little butter. Add 3 tablespoons of the batter and swirl it around the pan to make a thin even layer. Cook over medium-high heat until golden, about 1 minute.
Flip the crepe over and cook the second side for about 1 minute. Slide it onto a plate.
Spread peach slices on half of the crepe. Add a dollop of Crème Fraiche or sour cream and fold the second half over.
Consider drizzling with blackberry syrup before serving.
