Simple and Delicious Crepes
A French favorite
The French always have it right when it comes to food and crêpes are no exception. These simple treats are enjoyed at breakfast, as a snack (a popular street food in Paris) or dessert. Consider setting up a crêpe bar for a fun weekend brunch, complete with all the fillings and toppings.
Crêpes are actually very easy to make and the key to a good is a nonstick pan, unless you are fortunate to have a large, round griddle like they make them on in France.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- dash salt
- 4 eggs
- 3/4 cup milk
- 3/4 cup water
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 2 TBL. sugar
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- drop almond extract
Combine in blender until well mixed and make immediately or store in fridge overnight. The batter should be a little thinner than pancake batter, you can add a little milk to thin it out if necessary.
Heat 1 tsp butter in non-stick pan over medium heat. Ladle about 1/4 c. batter and swirl in a circular shape. Cook for a couple minutes and flip, cooking another 30 seconds. The French don't flip their crêpes, but when using a skillet, it cooks it evenly.
Fill with fresh fruit, whipped cream, Nutella spread, or a simple dusting of sugar.
Bon Appetit!
