Conrad and I had a nice lazy morning today. I woke up, and while Conrad was still sleeping, I made crepes (pronounced krepps). They are a French pancake that are really thin, and you spread nutella or jam or fruit and powdered sugar, or even ham and cheese, and roll it up. Its as versatile as a tortilla, but eggier.
Conrad loved them. He called them creeps. Here's the recipe:
2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup water
1 cup flour
1/4 tsp salt
2 Tbsp butter, melted
Mix eggs, milk, and water well. Add in salt and flour, and make sure it's well blended. No lumps. Quickly blend in the melted butter. Lightly oil a large griddle or frying pan. Pour 1/4-1/2 cup of batter into the pan. Swirl the pan so the batter spreads out into a large, thin circle. Cook until very lightly brown on the bottom, then flip and cook the other side.
oh i love crepes!! we like to make them with friends at conference time. mmm so simple and yet so delicious
