Crêpes

Salut mes amis,

This morning I woke up and I wanted crêpes, so I made some! This delicious french dish is so simple yet you can dress it up in any way, making it savoury or sweet. One day this year, my friend Karly made these wonderful crêpes with prosciutto, caramelized peppers, and goat cheese, topped with a light vinaigrette. They were delicious and we ate them for dinner. With a few toppings these puppies can look fancy in a flash.

Another time this year, I was over at some friends' house and after a lovely sausage pasta dish that Hannah made, Kevin made us sweet crêpes for dessert, showing us that they are the quickest yummiest dessert!

Here is the recipe I made this morning! It makes two crêpes, enough for one person.

Crêpes

Ingredients
- 1/4 cup milk 
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- A little butter to coat the pan

Instructions
✿ Whisk together all the ingredients until smooth.
✿ Grease a pretty large pan with butter over medium heat. Make sure the pan is hot enough by flicking a few drops of water into the pan. If it sizzles, then it's ready!
✿ Pour half the batter into the pan and roll the pan around so that the batter covers the surface of the pan. It should be thin.
✿ Turn the crêpe over once bubbles start to appear and the one side is no longer sticky (roughly a few minutes).


Bon appétit!
