Some tips:

  • Make sure the pan is hot (not crazy hot, but more like an 8 out of 10) and use a good quality butter for frying.
  • Turn the heat down once the batter is poured into the frying pan.  Swirl around the pan to get the crepe nice and thin.
  • Use more or less milk if needed.  This mixture should be quite runny and will vary depending on the flour used.  Organic flour needs more milk than non-organic flour.

Toppings that are great:

  • Fresh lemon juice and a sprinkle of raw sugar
  • Ice-cream and strawberries
  • Fruit and 100% pure maple syrup
  • Strawberries, raspberries, whipped cream and chocolate topping
