Crepe Recipe Une!

I mentioned in my last post a creperie in Quebec.  In a similar spirit, we’re having a food day in my French class this Friday, and I volunteered to make crepe batter (my teacher is bringing in a crepe maker).  Later in the day, when I mentioned this to some of my friends, I was shocked to find that they had never experienced the wonderfulness that is a crepe.  I immediately had to rectify that and write down a basic recipe for them to try.  Here it is:

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cooking oil
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

Directions:

In bowl comine flour, milk, eggs, sugar, oil, and salt.  Beat with electric mixer until blended.  Heat a lightly greased 6-inch skillet.  Remove from heat.  Spoon in 2 tablespoons batter; lift and tilt skillet to spread batter.  Return to heat, brown on one side.  Invert pan over paper toweling; remove crepe.  Repeat until all the batter is used.  Makes 16-18 crepes.

Suggested fillings:

  • apple or cherry pie filling
  • any flavor of jam
  • nutella

Now, you may notice that this is just crepe recipe one.  I have two others that I’ll be posting tomorrow and Friday.  This is the simplest and most basic of the three.  Hope you enjoy them!
