HOMEMADE THIN PANCAKES (CREPES)

Thanks to my moms side of the family for sharing this recipe with me! In my household, we eat this type of pancake more than the traditional type. You can eat these with butter and syrup or fruit and whip cream or peanut butter and bananas or chocolate and strawberries with cream cheese. Possibilities are endless!!


Ingredients:

1 cup flour
1 cup milk
2 tbls sugar
1 tsp salt
4 eggs


Blend all ingredients together in a blender or mix in a bowl with a wire whisk. Make sure there are no lumps in the batter. 

Heat a skillet on medium high.

Spray skillet with cooking spray or add a little bit of oil or butter

Pour 1/4 to 1/2 cup of batter(depending on the size of your skillet) into the middle of the skillet. Distribute the batter evenly around the skillet by picking up the skillet and tipping it to the sides, going all the way around the skillet. Picture to the left shows what it should look like. Cook until edges start to brown( this doesn't take very long so watch carefully) Using a spatula flip pancake and brown the other side. Remove from heat and garnish with whatever you desire.

This recipe makes around 6 pancakes depending on the size of your skillet and how thick you make them. If you are making pancakes for a large group you can store them in the oven on a low temp, in a 13X9 dish and cover them with a damp towel. Or if they are eating at your house you can cook to order. :) Enjoy!
