Crepes

The recipe we found is called "Basic Crepes." These might be easy to make, but they are not basic. They are every bit as good as the ones we get in the creperie. Get the right toppings and you're in business! --Mark

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 eggs

½ cup milk

½ cup water

¼ tsp salt

2 T butter, melted

Directions

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and the eggs. Gradually add in the milk and water, stirring to combine. Add the salt and butter; beat until smooth.

Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each crepe. Tilt the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly.

Cook the crepe for about 2 minutes, until the bottom is light brown. Loosen with a spatula, turn and cook the other side. Serve hot.

Notes

Fill these with whatever sounds good. Olives, feta, and olive oil make a great savory option. Drizzled butter with brown sugar and cinnamon makes a really good sweet one. Look at a creperie's menu and have at it!
