Crepes: An Easy Weekend Breakfast


The other weekend, we had Andy’s father visiting us and I decided that, instead of going down the street to buy a $10 crepe, I would make my own. I stumbled upon this recipe, which is so easy and such a crowd pleaser.



I used a variety of toppings for the crepes: cherries, chopped apples with cinnamon and sugar, bananas and peanut butter. Everyone got to make their own crepe and everyone enjoyed them. Plus, they were so easy to make!


  
Ingredients
2 cups of all-purpose flour
2 eggs
1 cup of milk
1 cup of water
Dash of salt
4 tablespoons of butter, melted

Directions
1.       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.
2.       Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/2 cup for each crepe. Tilt the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly.

3.       Cook the crepe for about two minutes, until the bottom is light brown. Loosen with a spatula, turn and cook the other side. Add your favorite toppings and serve hot.
