CREPE BATTER RECIPE

Steps:

• In a blender, combine all the ingredients except for the cooking oil and blend for 1 minute on high. Refrigerate the batter for 2 hours.
• Using a pastry brush, lightly brush the skillet with oil and place over medium-high heat. When the pan is just beginning to smoke, remove from heat, and pour 1/4 cup of the batter in the middle of the pan and quickly tilt in all directions for 2 or 3 seconds to evenly distribute the batter. Return the pan to the heat and when slightly brown on the underside, turn the crepe with a spatula onto the other side and cook for a few seconds. Remove from pan. Repeat with remaining batter.

Steps:

• Beat together the eggs and milk with a whisk or in an electric blender. (We always use the blender and it's easy to pour from).
• Sift the flour with the salt and add to the egg and milk mixture.
• Add the melted butter or vegetable oil and blend thoroughly.
• If beating by hand, strain the mixture through a sieve to remove any lumps.
• Allow mixture to stand for at least an hour before using (my kids can't do that!). If the batter is too thick, add a little milk and mix.
• Pour one or two tablespoons of the batter in the centre of a hot, nonstick frying pan. Tilt to spread the batter to the edges of the pan. Cook until the top is dry. Turn over and cook the other side for about 15 seconds. Don't worry if the first couple aren't perfect - those are the trial ones for me!
• You can roll these with fruit inside and top with whipped cream. My kids like using peanut butter and bananas and I like blueberries or spinach and mushrooms. Be adventuresome!

BASIC CREPES

Steps:

• 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.

Steps:

• Combine the milk, water, eggs, flour and salt. Blend until batter is smooth and lump-free. Pour in the 3 tablespoons of melted butter and whisk just to incorporate.

• Warm an 8-inch crepe pan or nonstick skillet over medium heat. Brush with a little melted butter.
• While swirling the pan, ladle 1/4 cup batter into the pan to cover evenly. Cook for 30-45 seconds, until the batter sets.
• Lightly tap the edge of the pan with a wooden spoon to loosen the crepe, then flip and cook 30 more seconds. Alternately, you may use a rubber spatula to flip the crepe.
• The crepes should be pliable, not crisp, and light brown in color. Slice onto a platter, covered with a towel, while you make the rest of the crepes.

Cook on second side until just set and golden in places on bottom, about 45 seconds. Slide crepe onto a paper towel-lined plate.
