WHOLE-WHEAT CREPES
I've modified my grandmother's original crepe recipe to include whole-wheat flour and honey instead of sugar, and they are just as delicious! Enjoy these for breakfast, dinner, or dessert depending on what filling you choose-sweet or savory.

Steps:
- Put all ingredients in blender and mix well. Let stand about 15 minutes.
- Melt and swirl around a small pat of butter in an 8 or 10-inch frying pan over medium heat.
- Angle pan and pour enough batter on one side to thinly and evenly cover the pan. Very quickly swirl the batter around to cover the pan in one thin layer.
- Immediately use your cooking spatula to push down the thin edges of the crepe around the perimeter.
- After about 1 minute (and once it is golden brown on the bottom) carefully flip it over without tearing the crepe.
- Fry for 1 more minute on the other side (until it is golden brown as well) and then roll up each crepe. Serve with 100% pure maple syrup.

Steps:
- Whisk milk, flour, egg, 2 teaspoons melted butter, and 2 teaspoons sugar together in a bowl until smooth. Cover and refrigerate crepe batter for at least 30 minutes, or overnight.
- Heat an 8-inch saute pan over medium heat. Brush pan with 1 teaspoon melted butter. Pour in 1/4 cup crepe batter; immediately tilt the pan and swirl so the batter covers the entire bottom of the pan. Cook until crepe begins to bubble and the edges are turning brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip crepe and cook until the other side browns slightly, about 1 more minute. Remove to a plate and repeat to cook remaining 3 crepes.
- At the same time, place orange juice, 1/4 cup sugar, and cinnamon in a small saucepan; bring to a boil. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes. Stir in orange zest.
- Fill each crepe with blueberries and whipped cream. Roll up and pour syrup over top.

Steps:
- Note: If you want to make regular crepes, not using whole wheat flour, use 3/4 cup milk, 2 tbs cold water, and substitute 3/4 cup white flour.
- In a small bowl, beat the eggs, milk, melted butter, and salt until well combined-about 20 seconds.
- Sift the flour into a medium size bowl or a 2 quart measuring cup, then add the liquid mixture, beating until well combined-about 1 minute.
- Or blend the eggs, milk, butter, and salt in an electric blender or food processor for 15 seconds; sprinkle in the flour and blend until smooth-about 30 seconds.
- Cover loosely with plastic wrap; let stand for at least 1 hour refrigerated or at room temperature. (The flour will swell to make a softer batter.) Will keep, refrigerated, for up to 4 hours.
- Brush butter on the bottom of a crepe pan or heavy 7-inch skillet.
- Set over moderate heat for about 30 seconds or until a drop of batter sizzles.
- Stir the batter well, pour 2 tablespoonfuls into the skillet, and quickly tip it back and forth so that the batter evenly coats the bottom.
- Cook until the crepe edges are golden brown-about 1 minute.
- Slide a spatula under the crepe, flip it over, and cook for about 30 seconds.
- Transfer to a warm plate.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, rebuttering the skillet when necessary.
- *At this point the crepes can be cooled to room temperature, separated by sheets of wax paper, and stored.
- Refrigerate, wrapped tightly with plastic wrap, for up to 24 hours.
- Freeze, wrapped with aluminum foil and labeled, for up to 1 month at 0°F.
- Serve with your own favorite crepe filling or try Walnut Crepes with Mocha Sauce or Cinnamon Crepes with Caramel Sauce and Pecans.
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- Use ripe blueberries: This will ensure that your crepes have the best flavor. If you don't have ripe blueberries, you can thaw frozen blueberries before using them.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will make the crepes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Cook the crepes over medium heat: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from burning.
- Flip the crepes carefully: Use a spatula to gently flip the crepes. If you try to flip them too soon, they may break.
- Serve the crepes immediately: Crepes are best served warm. You can top them with your favorite fruits, syrup, or whipped cream.
