Crespelle al Bitto are rustic buckwheat pancakes filled with melted Bitto cheese, traditionally prepared in Valtellina. This simple dish truly celebrates locally produced ingredients: buckwheat and one of the most renowned local cheeses, Bitto.

The filling is sometimes additionally enriched with parmigiano or some other type of cheese - bresaola, mushrooms, or pancetta can also be added to the mixture. Once filled, crespelle al Bitto are sprinkled with parmigiano, then baked in the oven until the cheese melts.
