How to Make Crepes

Visit my blog at www.overthekitchencounter.com for more info on cooking and crafts.

Here is a simple recipe for delicious crepes. Thin and tender, these pancakes are very versatile and are easy to use in both sweet and savoury dishes. Make up the batch then freeze any leftovers layered between waxed paper and wrapped in foil. Fill with whatever you like: sliced berries and icecream, bananas sauteed in rum, marmalade and orange liqueur, chicken and broccoli in a white sauce, or just butter and syrup.

Crepes:
1-1/4 cups milk
3 eggs
2 Tbsp soft butter
3/4 cup all purpose flour
2 Tbsp sugar
1/4 tsp salt

can u substitute soft butter for veg. oil ???

[a1angiem]

@85jtchicago the butter offers better flavour and texture and is preferable.

@BrendoGames depends on where you live!

To get rid of lumps, should you strain the batter? Good vid btw :)

[a1angiem]

@banana8364261 I wouldn't bother...just mix it well, you'll be ok.

@exoticb09 It helps to have a really good non-stick pan (and even better if it's a crepe pan), plus the first one is always a mess...keep trying, you'll get it! Keep the batter thin in the pan, swirl it around and just flip once. If you make them just for yourself to practice, it won't matter what they look like and you'll have lots to practice on! (And they will still taste yummy!) freeze leftovers...:)
