A sweet apricot sauce nicely complements
these really good and savory ham crepes.

1-1/2 cups milk
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1 cup all-purpose flour
20 thin slices deli ham

1 can (15-1/4 ounces) apricot halves
2/3 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 cans (5-1/2 ounces each) apricot nectar
2 tablespoons butter
2 teaspoons lemon juice

Lift and tilt pan to evenly coat bottom.
Cook until top appears dry; turn and cook 15-20 seconds longer.

In a large saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch and salt.
Add apricot nectar and reserved syrup; stir until smooth.
Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes
or until thickened. Remove from the heat;
stir in the butter, lemon juice and apricot slices.
