No Fail French Crepes Recipes

FRENCH CREPES

Steps:

• Sift together flour, sugar and salt; set aside. In a large bowl, beat eggs and milk together with an electric mixer. Beat in flour mixture until smooth; stir in melted butter.
• Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 2 tablespoons for each crepe. Tip and rotate pan to spread batter as thinly as possible. Brown on both sides and serve hot.

NO-FAIL FRENCH CREPES

Steps:

• Heat an electric griddle to 350º, or a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
• Whisk the egg in large bowl. Whisk in the milk.
• Add the Bisquick and whisk until there are few lumps. The batter will be thin.
• Butter the griddle or skillet, using about 1-1/2 teaspoons of the butter.
• Cook 2 crepes at once on griddle, or one at a time in skillet by pouring the batter by scant 1/4 cupfuls onto hot griddle.
• Cook on the first side until the crepes begin to set and tiny bubbles appear on the surface, about 1 minute.
• Turn and cook for another 30 seconds. Remove to a plate.
• Repeat, butter the griddle/pan as needed, until all the batter is used.
• Whisk jam in small bowl until smooth.
• To assemble, spread 1 tablespoon jam over one side of each crepe. Squirt a generous amount of whip cream over the jam. Starting at that edge, gently roll up the crepe.
• Garnich each with about 1 teaspoon of jam and dollop of cream.
• You can also drizzle with chocolate syrup.
• Serve at once.

CREPES

Steps:

• In a blender, combine all of the ingredients and pulse for 10 seconds. Place the crepe batter in the refrigerator for 1 hour. This allows the bubbles to subside so the crepes will be less likely to tear during cooking. The batter will keep for up to 48 hours.
• Heat a small non-stick pan. Add butter to coat. Pour 1 ounce of batter into the center of the pan and swirl to spread evenly. Cook for 30 seconds and flip. Cook for another 10 seconds and remove to the cutting board. Lay them out flat so they can cool. Continue until all batter is gone. After they have cooled you can stack them and store 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.

DESSERT CREPES

Steps:

• In large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, melted butter, flour sugar and salt until smooth.
• Heat a medium-sized skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Grease pan with a small amount of butter or oil applied with a brush or paper towel. Using a serving spoon or small ladle, spoon about 3 tablespoons crepe batter into hot pan, tilting the pan so that bottom surface is evenly coated. Cook over medium heat, 1 to 2 minutes on a side, or until golden brown. Serve immediately.
