Vanilla Crepes

You know it's a good recipe when you've made it 8 times in the last 8 weeks.


1 1/2 cups milk
3 egg yolks
2 tablespoons vanilla extract (I actually use 1 1/2)
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 tablespoons melted butter

Directions:
1. In a large bowl, mix together the milk, egg yolks and vanilla. Stir in the flour, sugar, salt and melted butter until well blended.

2. Heat a crepe pan over medium heat until hot. Coat with vegetable oil or cooking spray. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the pan and tip to spread the batter to the edges. When bubbles form on the top and the edges are dry, flip over and cook until lightly browned on the other side and edges are golden. Repeat with remaining batter.

3. Fill crepes with your favorite fruit, cream, caramel or even ice cream or cheese to serve. (We have also used mozzarella cheese and smoked turkey while the crepe was still on the pan for a melty delicious and quick dinner type crepe)

  1. Are these the ones Christy told me about? Did you make a Monte Cristo variation with these? I'm going to have to give them a try.
