Crepes With Cider Syrup Recipes

FRENCH CANADIAN CREPES

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a large bowl, whisk all the ingredients vigorously until the crepe batter is completely smooth.
• Place the batter in the refrigerator and allow it to rest for at least 20 minutes.
• Melt a little bit of the butter in a crepe pan or large skillet over medium-low heat.
• Add 3 tablespoons of the batter to the pan and swirl until the bottom of the pan is completely covered.
• Cook the crepe for 1 minute, or until it is slightly moist on top and golden underneath.
• Using a spatula, loosen the edges of the crepe, then slide the spatula underneath, and gently flip it, trying to have it lay flat.
• Cook for 1 more minute, until the edges are starting to crisp up, and transfer the cooked crepe to a plate to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter if the pan becomes dry.
• Fill with desired ingredients and fold or roll up .
• Serve and enjoy.

BASIC CREPES

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and the eggs. Gradually add in the milk and water, stirring to combine. Add the salt and butter; beat until smooth.
• Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each crepe. Tilt the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly.
• Cook the crepe for about 2 minutes, until the bottom is light brown. Loosen with a spatula, turn and cook the other side. Serve hot.

SIMPLE CREPES

Steps:

• In a blender, puree flour, sugar, salt, milk, eggs, and butter until smooth, about 30 seconds. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or up to 1 day; stir for a few seconds before using.
• Heat an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium. Lightly coat with butter. Quickly pour 1/4 cup batter into center of skillet, tilting and swirling pan until batter evenly coats bottom. Cook until crepe is golden in places on bottom and edges begin to lift from pan, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Lift one edge of crepe with an offset spatula, then use your fingers to gently flip crepe. Cook on second side until just set and golden in places on bottom, about 45 seconds. Slide crepe onto a paper towel-lined plate.
• Repeat with remaining batter, coating pan with more butter as needed, and stacking crepes directly on top of one another. Let cool to room temperature before using, wrapping in plastic wrap and refrigerating up to 5 days, or freezing up to 1 month.
