Belgium Pancakes A.k.a. Crepes image

In Belgium when you are invited for a pancake breakfeast you are actually going to eat what Americans think of as crepes. They are usually only made for special occasions such as birthdays. From my very old recipe book called "Wonderfull Ways to Prepare Crepes and Pancakes".

Time 1h15m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 eggs
1 cup milk
1/3 cup water
1 1/4 cups plain flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 tablespoons of melted unsalted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Beat the eggs and add to the milk, vanilla, and water beating either by hand or mixing in electric blender.
  • Sift the flour with salt and gradually add to the egg and milk mixture.
  • Add the melted butter and blend thoroughly.
  • If mixing by hand, strain the batter through a sieve to remove any lumps.
  • Allow to stand for at least an hour before using. If too thick, add a little more water and mix well.
  • Pour one or two tablespoons of the batter (depending on the size of the pan) in the center of a hot, lightly oiled frypan. Tip the pan to spread the batter and cook until the top is dry. Turn over and cook for 15 seconds on the other side.

I thought the pancakes were a bit too eggy. I used less eggs than the recipe called for, and that helped to reduce the eggy flavor.

The pancakes were a bit too dry for my taste. I added some milk to the batter, and that helped to make them more moist.

I had a hard time getting the pancakes to cook evenly. Some of them were cooked through, while others were still raw in the middle.

The pancakes were a bit too oily for my taste. I used less butter than the recipe called for, and that helped to reduce the oiliness.

I thought the pancakes were a little bland. I added some cinnamon and nutmeg to the batter, and that helped to improve the flavor.

The pancakes were delicious, but I found that they were a little bit too thick for my taste. Next time, I'll use a little less batter.
