DIY Crepes

A quick snack for those busy mornings; try customizing your own crepe!

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 C all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 C milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1T butter (melted)
  • 1/3 tsp salt
  • filling (could be anything: fruits, veggies, eggs and sausages…)

Directions:

  1. In a food processor, mix eggs for about 10 seconds.
  2. Add milk and butter, and mix 10 additional seconds.
  3. Add flour and salt.  Mix again for 10-15 seconds.  The batter should be considerably runnier than a pancake mixture, but should also maintain a slight thickness.  If its still too thin add additional flour 1 T at a time until desired texture is reached.
  4. Let batter sit 20-30 minutes while prepping fruits of choice.
  5. When cooking crepes, heat a no-stick skillet over medium-low heat.  Remove the skillet from heat and coat the pan with a small layer of vegetable oil.
  6.  Scoop 1/4 C of the crepe mixture into the skillet and use your wrist to distribute the batter evenly around the circumference of the pan.
  7. When edges begin to brown (after about 1-2 mins), use you fingers and the tip of a cereal spoon to flip the crepe and cook for another minute.
  8. Remove from heat, and store on a plate covered with foil, or in a warmer.  Repeat until batter is gone.  (This should make 4 crepes)
  9. You can fill crepes with essentially anything (eggs and sausage for breakfast, veggies, or fruits for a quick snack!)
