Recipe type: Breakfast
Author: Merry
Prep time: 10 mins
Cook time: 30 mins
Total time: 40 mins
Ingredients
  • Crepes:
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • Apple Topping (enough for about 4 crepes):
  • 2 apples
  • 2 Tbsp powdered (icing) sugar
  • 2 Tbsp butter
Instructions
  1. Crepes: Mix flour & salt in one bowl. Mix liquid ingredients in another bowl. Add liquid to flour & beat until smooth. Batter should be relatively thin so that it will spread in the pan. I had to add about 3/4 cup extra water.
  2. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter on the pan using ~ 1/4 cup for each crepe (or more if this amount won’t cover the area you want). Tilt the pan in a circular motion so the surface is coated evenly.
  3. Cook the crepe for about 2 minutes until the bottom is light golden brown in spots. Flip and cook the other side. Serve hot.
  4. Filling: Heat in non-stick skillet on stove until apples are tender. Increase recipe for the number of people you have.

Recipe Notes: These are a little fiddly until you get the hang of it but they are very, very good.

This looks delicious, Merry! Crepes are a "go-to" in our household – I fill them with just about anything I can get my hands on. I might try your version this Sunday!

My Dad used to make crepes all the time, and I have yet to learn how. I keep thinking I need a special crepe pan in order to do it.

I'm so bookmarking this recipe for when I actually get around to it :)
