Crepes



 Ingredients :

1 cup all purpose flour
2 large eggs *
1 1/3 cup of milk
1 tbsp sugar1 tbsp oil *
1 tsp vanilla extract
A good pinch of salt

Yields :  20 - 24 crepes 






Directions :

1. Combine all the ingredients and whisk until a smooth batter forms. ( Or you can just put the ingredients in a blender and blitz for about 1 minute at low speed. )
2. Heat a skillet over medium high heat and grease it lightly with butter or cooking spray.
3. Pour a small scoop of batter on the pan and spread it into a thin circle. Lift the pan by the handle and rotate your wrist so the batter spreads into a thin circle.
4. Place the pan back on the heat an cook until the top of the crepe looks dry. This shouldn't more than 30-60 seconds. Flip using a spatula and cook for another 15-30 seconds.
5. Remove from pan and stack on a plate. 

*NOTE :
1. For each egg, combine 1 tablespoon of ground flax seed (measure after grinding) with 3 tablespoons of water. Stir well, and place in the fridge to set for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, the result should be a sticky egg-like substitute. A quick and easy egg replacement, using freshly ground flax seeds !
2. You can replace oil by butter or applesauce. 

You can serve crepes in a gazillion ways. Spread peanut butter / nutella / almon butter / fruit jam inside them . Or drizzle them with honey / maple syrup / chocolate syrup / caramel sauce. I like them best with fresh fruits and whipped cream :)
