Crepes

I know when you think of Crepes you think... Eeks you can't be serious but yes quick and easy crepes.


Prep time 5 min
Cook time 10 Min for whole batch
Non stick Skillet on Medium Heat
makes about 10-12 crepes (Dependant upon the thickness of the crepes)

Combine in a blender
2 Eggs
2 Cups Milk
2 Cups Flour
2 Tbs Sugar
Pinch of salt

Add milk or flour until the mix is the consistency of heavy cream

The next step is all in the wrist. Place about a 1/4 cup of mixture in the skillet while holding it on an angle above the stove. Swirl the pan quickly until you have a even layer in a circle like pattern (mine are certainly not symmetrical). Cook on one side until it is slightly brown, at this point the Crepe should release easily and you can flip it (if you are so daring) or turn it to the other side so it can brown. Place on a plate with a towel over them to keep them warm. Don't get discouraged it takes a little time to get the right feel and movements.

Suggestions for fillings.
Desserts: We use a lot of marmalades or Jams (your choice of flavors) with whip cream or cinnamon. you can use fresh fruits and yogurt as well.
Breakfast: We use scrambled eggs for the main portion and add our favorites breakfasts meats to it.
