New Year’s Crepes

Happy 2013! This is one of our family’s favorite recipes from my Dad.

Every New Year, we have gotten together with friends and family and my Dad has made stacks and stacks of these. A very delicious tradition and now we are carrying it on with our own family.  Printable version here.

1 ½ cups milk

2 Tbs. butter, melted

3 eggs

2 Tbs. sugar

1 ¼ cups flour

pinch of salt

1. Place all ingredients in blender or mixer and beat well. Let batter stand

one hour for more perfect crepes.

2. Have pan heated enough so that water will bead on it. Take the pan off the

heat to add the batter directly into the center of the pan and quickly roll

the pan about so that the batter covers the bottom. If it is too thick, add 1

tsp water.

3. Enjoy with any filling! Some of our favorite toppings: strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, peaches, bananas(any fruit!), nutella, brown sugar, peanut butter, butter, powdered sugar, lemon, buttermilk syrup (see recipe here), mini chocolate chips, nuts, the possibilities and combinations are endless, so you really can’t just have one. Roll them up, fold them in half, eat them daintily with a fork, whatever floats your boat.
