Crepes



Ok, I am from a French island, and am supposed to be able to cook French foods. Well, not quite, only some. However, I do know how to make crepes, and my hubby and boys absolutely loooooooooooooove it when it is crepes for breakfast.

Here is the recipe I use and how I do it without a crepe pan:

1 cup of flour

2 Tbsp sugar

2 eggs

1 1/2 cup milk

1 tbsp oil

Mix all the ingredients in a bowl until well blended (a whisk works just fine).

Heat up  a 9" skillet at medium temperature. Wipe the bottom with some butter (do this periodically as you make your way through the batter).

Pour 1/4 cup of the batter in the skillet, tilting the skillet to spread the batter evenly all over the bottom. Wait 1-2 minutes till the bottom starts to brown.







Flip the crepe over an cook for another 2 min. (or until brown at the bottom).



Et voila.

This recipe will give you about 12 crepes



Enjoy!
