One of my favorite things to eat at Disney World is the Pongu Lumpia from Pongu Pongu in Pandora: The World of Avatar at Animal Kingdom. I was really craving them this week, so I decided to try my hand at creating a version I could make at home. After a few tweaks, such as substituting crepes for the usual egg roll wrappers and baking them instead of frying, this is what I came up with and I love it. So if you're craving Pongu Lumpia, give this a try.
Pongu Lumpia Inspired Crepes
8 oz cream cheese
8 oz crushed pineapple, drain well before measuring
1/2 cup powdered sugar
8 crepes (I used a modified version of America's Test Kitchen's Gluten-Free Crepes but you can use any basic crepe recipe)
Preheat oven to 350°F. Soften cream cheese for 30-45 seconds at 50% power in the microwave. Stir pineapple and sugar into softened cream cheese. Divide into 8 equal portions, approximately 3 Tablespoons each. Spread onto crepes before rolling up. Bake for 10 minutes on a lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving. Enjoy warm. Makes 4 servings.
