Crepe

Crepe

Who doesn't love crepe? I am not sure why I have never made them before. I always assumed you needed a crepe pan. However after seeing this post on Soupbelly, I wanted to try.

Crepe in Pan

What a great find to add to my recipe collection. They turned out fantastic! It just happened that we had whipped cream and strawberries. An of course, my daughter was quick to find the nutella bottle. The only thing I wanted to do better the next time is made the crepe thinner.

Printable Recipe

Ingredients:
1 cup flour
2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup water
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoon melted butter

For sweet dessert crêpes, add
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon sugar

Directions:
1) In mixing bowl, mix flour and eggs. Add milk and water intermittently stirring until well blended.
2) Add milk and water intermittently, stirring until well blended. Add salt and butter, blend until consistency of very thin pancake batter.
3) Lightly grease a small non-stick pan, heat on medium high. Use a liquid measuring cup to pour exactly 1/4 cup of batter onto pan. To cover surface with a thin layer of batter evenly, pour directly into middle of pan, then swish from the center out by tilting pan in circular motion.
4) Crepes should cook for around 1-2 minutes, until golden brown. Use spatula to gently flip to other side. Change heat back and forth between medium high to medium, if pan starts getting too hot and crepes are turing dark brown or burning.
