Classic French Crepes Beurre-Sucre (Butter and Sugar) image

This is the classic French dessert or snack crepe. Sure, you can fill dessert crepes with all sorts of jams and mousses, but, simple as this is, it's simply delicious. You can get these at crepe stands on Paris street corners. (Preparation time I've listed does not include cooking the crepes).

Time 3m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 french crepe (I used Basic Whole Wheat French Crepes)
1 teaspoon butter
1 teaspoon sugar

Steps:

  • Amounts can be adjusted according to personal taste and the size of your crepes.
  • Cut the butter into little pieces.
  • Put 1-2 little pieces of butter into a skillet and put the crepe on top of them.
  • Scatter the rest of the little pieces of butter over the top of the crepe.
  • Let them melt a little.
  • Sprinkle the sugar over the melty butter.
  • After a few seconds, the sugar will be starting to melt into the butter a little bit but will still be somewhat granular.
  • Fold the left third of the crepe over the middle, then fold the right third over that, and let the folded crepe heat in the pan for a few more seconds.
  • Remove the crepe from the pan and eat it hot-- the sugar should be mostly melted into the butter, with a hint of pleasantly grainy sugariness at moments.

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

7 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled, divided
1 cup whole milk
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
6 tablespoons sugar, divided

Steps:

  • Reserve 1 tablespoon melted butter for brushing skillet.
  • Blend milk, flour, eggs, 2 tablespoons sugar, 2 tablespoons butter, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a blender until smooth, then chill, covered, 30 minutes.
  • Lightly brush a 10-inch nonstick skillet with some of reserved butter and heat over medium heat until hot. Pour in 1/4 cup batter, immediately tilting and rotating skillet to coat bottom, and cook crêpe, turning once, until just set and golden, about 1 minute total. Transfer to a plate. Make 7 more crêpes, stacking them.
  • Brush each crêpe with 1 teaspoon butter and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon sugar, then fold twice to form a triangle.
  • Heat 2 teaspoons each of butter and sugar with a pinch of salt in skillet until sugar has dissolved, then cook 4 crêpes, turning once, until golden brown. Repeat with remaining butter, sugar, and crêpes.

Tips:

  • Use room temperature ingredients: This will help the batter come together more easily and create a smoother crepe.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the crepes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a non-stick skillet: This will help prevent the crepes from sticking and make them easier to flip.
  • Heat the skillet over medium heat: If the skillet is too hot, the crepes will burn. If it's too cool, they won't cook through.
  • Cook the crepes for about 1-2 minutes per side: The crepes should be cooked through but still slightly soft and pliable.
  • Serve the crepes immediately: Crepes are best when served warm. You can fill them with your favorite toppings, such as fruit, whipped cream, or chocolate sauce.

Conclusion:

Butter and sugar crepes are a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With a few simple ingredients and a little practice, you can make perfect crepes at home. So next time you're in the mood for something sweet and satisfying, give this recipe a try.
