REAL FRENCH CREPES
I am a French Canadian from Montreal, this recipe is one of the first ones that I learned as a child growing up and can either be served traditional style with REAL maple syrup on top or cold with ice cream rolled into it and chocolate syrup on top as a dessert.

Steps:
- In a mixing bowl, combine flour, egg, and milk.
- Heat a large skillet or crepe pan over a medium-high heat. Spray the pan with non-stick cooking spray. Pour about 1/3 cup of batter into the pan, lift the pan and turn it by rotating your wrist, spreading a PAPER THIN amount in the pan. Flip the crepe when it starts to bubble. When it is finished cooking, remove it and repeat this process with the remaining batter.

Steps:
- Place water, milk, flour, eggs and salt into blender (in that order makes it easier to scrape the unmixed flour off the sides) and blend at lowest setting.
- After 30 seconds pour in melted butter and continue to blend at lowest setting for two minutes (make sure to stop the blender after about 15 seconds and scrape any unmixed flour off the sides).
- Warm a non-stick crepe pan (8" or 10" pans are the best size) over medium heat.
- Starting with the crepe pan already tilted, pour in 1/4 cup to 1/3 cup of batter (depending on pan size) and quickly tilt the pan spreading the batter to the edges (this should make for a nice thin crepe).
- Once the edges start to curl up slightly, inspect the under-side to see if it's a light golden-brown.
- This step is up to you, but some people like to flip the crepe for about 10-15 seconds just to give it a more "finished off" look.
- Fill with fruit or Nutella or cinnamon-sugar, or my favorite, ham & Gruyère (don't forget to add pepper!).

THE BEST CREPES
Our classic crepe is versatile enough to go sweet or savory, just omit the vanilla if going the savory route. The rest time here is key; the flour absorbs the milk as it sits giving you a more tender crepe and golden color.

Steps:
- Add the milk, eggs, flour, sugar, vanilla and salt to a blender. Puree on high speed until completely smooth and slightly thickened and creamy, about 1 minute. Add the melted butter and puree until incorporated, 30 seconds more. Let the batter rest in the blender carafe for at least 1 hour at room temperature or refrigerate up to 24 hours. The longer you allow the batter to rest and hydrate, the lighter and softer the texture of the crepes will be; overnight is ideal.
- Before cooking, re-blend the batter at high speed for 30 seconds. This will reincorporate the ingredients, a vital step in getting an even golden color on the crepes. Wipe 1/2 teaspoon of oil on a large crepe pan or a 10-inch nonstick skillet with a paper towel. You don't want to see any drops of oil in the pan, just coat with the thinnest layer. Heat the pan over medium heat until hot.
- Ladle 1/4 cup batter into the pan. Working quickly off the heat, swirl and shake the pan to evenly coat the bottom with the batter. Return to the heat and cook the crepe, reducing the heat if it's browning too quickly, until the edges are light golden, about 2 minutes. Slide a spatula underneath to loosen the crepe and carefully flip it over. Cook on the other side until a few brown spots appear, 15 to 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, wiping pan with oil each time. Stack the crepes on the plate as you go (you should have about 15 total). Let the crepes cool for 10 minutes before serving or filling.
- For fillings, we suggest Nutella and bananas or peanut butter and jelly for sweet crepes. Ham and cheese makes a great filling for savory crepes.

Steps:
- Mix the flour and salt. Beat eggs and milk just until well blended. Stir into flour mixture until smooth. Stir in butter. Set aside for at least one-half hour and up to two hours. (Batter may also be kept overnight but may have to be thinned with a little milk before using. It should be just a little thicker than heavy cream.)
- Heat a six- to seven-inch crepe pan. (See note.)
- Spoon a small amount of batter into the pan, tipping the pan so the batter just coats the entire bottom.
- Cook about two minutes, until the underside is golden, flip over and cook the second side about 30 seconds, until lightly browned. Stack finished crepes on a plate and repeat with remaining batter.
- Spread a spoonful of preserves on each crepe, roll the crepes or fold them in quarters and warm in the oven before serving. Tops of filled crepes may be dusted with confectioners' sugar and if the crepes are placed under the broiler very briefly the sugar will caramelize.

- In a large mixing bowl whisk the flour, sugar, and salt until combined. Then create a well with dried ingredients and add the eggs. Gradually pour in milk, whisking to combine after each addition.
- The batter should be fairly fluid. If it seems too thick, add a little more milk. Then add the melted butter, mix well. Let the batter stands at room temperature until slightly bubbly on top, 30 to 60 minutes.
- Heat a non-stick pan. Add butter to coat. Pour 2-3 tablespoons of batter into the center of the pan and swirl to spread evenly. Cook for 2 minutes, then flip and cook 1 minute more.
- Lay them out flat so they can cool. Continue until all batter is gone. After they have cooled you can stack them and store them in sealable plastic bags in the refrigerator for several days or in the freezer for up to two months. When using frozen crepes, thaw on a rack before gently peeling apart.
