SWEET CREPE BATTER

This is a recipe from an old 1970's cookbook that myself and my oldest Son still cook from. They are really great and very easy. I included the one hour resting time in the preparation time. Enjoy!

Time 1h20m

Yield 12 crepes, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 eggs
2 egg yolks
1/2 cup water
3/4 cup milk
1 1/4 cups plain flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/4 tablespoons butter, melted or 1 1/4 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon brandy

Steps:

  • Beat together the eggs and egg yolks, then mix with the water and the milk either with a whisk or in an electric blender. (We always use the blender and it's easy to pour from).
  • Sift the flour, salt and sugar together. Gradually add to the egg and milk mixture.
  • Add the melted butter or vegetable oil and the brandy. 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 a mixture of berries. Be adventuresome!

Tips:

  • Make sure all your ingredients are at room temperature before you start. This will help ensure that the batter is smooth and lump-free.
  • If you don't have a crepe pan, you can use a nonstick skillet instead. Just make sure it's large enough to accommodate the crepes.
  • To prevent the crepes from sticking, make sure the pan is hot before you add the batter. You can test the heat by flicking a drop of water into the pan; if it sizzles and evaporates immediately, the pan is hot enough.
  • Pour the batter into the pan in a thin, even layer. If the batter is too thick, the crepes will be thick and doughy. If the batter is too thin, the crepes will be too delicate and容易破損.
  • Cook the crepes for about 1-2 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown. You can check if the crepes are done by lifting up an edge with a spatula. If the crepe is cooked through, it will be firm and slightly springy.
  • Serve the crepes immediately with your favorite toppings, such as fruit, whipped cream, or Nutella.

Conclusion:

Making sweet crepes is a fun and easy way to enjoy a delicious breakfast, brunch, or dessert. With a few simple ingredients and a little practice, you can master the art of crepe making and impress your friends and family with your culinary skills.
