THE BEST CREPES
Our classic crepe is versatile enough to go sweet or savory, just omit the vanilla if going the savory route. The rest time here is key; the flour absorbs the milk as it sits giving you a more tender crepe and golden color.

Steps:
- Add the milk, eggs, flour, sugar, vanilla and salt to a blender. Puree on high speed until completely smooth and slightly thickened and creamy, about 1 minute. Add the melted butter and puree until incorporated, 30 seconds more. Let the batter rest in the blender carafe for at least 1 hour at room temperature or refrigerate up to 24 hours. The longer you allow the batter to rest and hydrate, the lighter and softer the texture of the crepes will be; overnight is ideal.
- Before cooking, re-blend the batter at high speed for 30 seconds. This will reincorporate the ingredients, a vital step in getting an even golden color on the crepes. Wipe 1/2 teaspoon of oil on a large crepe pan or a 10-inch nonstick skillet with a paper towel. You don't want to see any drops of oil in the pan, just coat with the thinnest layer. Heat the pan over medium heat until hot.
- Ladle 1/4 cup batter into the pan. Working quickly off the heat, swirl and shake the pan to evenly coat the bottom with the batter. Return to the heat and cook the crepe, reducing the heat if it's browning too quickly, until the edges are light golden, about 2 minutes. Slide a spatula underneath to loosen the crepe and carefully flip it over. Cook on the other side until a few brown spots appear, 15 to 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, wiping pan with oil each time. Stack the crepes on the plate as you go (you should have about 15 total). Let the crepes cool for 10 minutes before serving or filling.
- For fillings, we suggest Nutella and bananas or peanut butter and jelly for sweet crepes. Ham and cheese makes a great filling for savory crepes.
SAVORY BEEF & CHEESE LAYERED CREPES
I love crepes and thought one night why not make crepes lasagna style. My husband loved this so much and wants it at least once a week. The variations are endless.

Steps:
- 1. For the Crepes: Mix the flour, salt, & sugar in a bowl. In a separate bowl break the eggs and whisk until mixed well. Add to the flour mixture. Add the milk and butter and mix well. In a 8 or 10 inch skillet or crepe pan add oil to cover the bottom. Pour in some of the crepe batter swirling the pan to completely cover the bottom. Let cook until set on the bottom then flip the crepe and cook 30 seconds than lay the crepe out onto parchment paper. Continue with the rest of the crepe dough. You should have 4 crepes. Set aside
- 2. Mornay Sauce: Whisk together the egg yolk and cream. Set aside In a saucepan add the butter and let it melt. Stir in the flour and whisk until browned. Cook on low heat for about 2 minutes. Slowly whisk in the milk until the sauce is creamy and thickened. Remove from heat and add the egg yolk and cream mixture. Whisk until well incorporated. Stir in the cheese 2 tbsp at at time until it is melted and smooth. Add nutmeg and salt and pepper. Set aside.
- 3. Filling: Add a little oil to a skillet. Add the onion and garlic and saute 4 minutes. Add the ground beef breaking it up and cook until meat is done. Drain. Stir in the tomato sauce and tomato paste. Cook until warmed through.
- 4. To assemble the dish Preheat oven 350 degrees. Get a baking dish big enough to fit the crepes. I used a pie pan. Spray with cooking spray and add one crepe. Top the crepe with 1/3 of the beef mixture, then 1/3 of the cheddar cheese then 1/4 or the Parmesan cheese. Top with 1/4 or the Mornay sauce. Add another crepe. Top with beef, cheddar, parm and mornay again. Add another crepe and top with beef, cheddar , parm and mornay. Add the final crepe and pour remaining Mornay sauce on top and then sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes. Top with chopped Parsley and cut into pieces to serve,

SAVORY BEEF FILLING FOR CREPES
Most recipes for crepes are generally the same, tweaked for personal tastes so I will leave out the crepes recipe for now. The beef sauce is a recipe that I've developed loosely from beef stroganoff, made with beef stew meat, potatoes, green onions, and any veggies you choose (I prefer carrots and/or broccoli.) The result of this recipe is a creamy, savory dinner that'll leave you wanting more. Serve sauce inside or on top of crepes.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add beef and season with salt and pepper. Cook and stir until it starts to brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Toss in potato, carrots, and green onions, then pour in milk. Reduce heat to medium and bring to a simmer.
- Mix 1/2 cup water with bouillon granules. Mix remaining water with flour, whisking until well combined. Add both mixtures to the saucepan and stir to combine. Stir in wine, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, cilantro, and rosemary. Cook, stirring every couple of minutes, until the vegetables begin to soften, about 10 minutes.
- Add broccoli and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until all vegetables and beef are tender, 10 to 15 more minutes.
- Serve sauce inside or on top of crepes.
