Recipe #4 - Crepes

Crepes are really versatile in terms of when you can eat them and what you can do with them. They can be sweet or savoury, and eaten for breakfast,brunch, dinner, or desert. They are not hard to make and it's actually quite a fun way to spend a weekend morning.

What you need:
-1 cup of milk
-4 eggs
-1 tbsp melted butter (melt in microwave for 30 seconds but check it every ten and stir it around)
-6 drops of vanilla (add more if you like. this is what will make the crepes more breakfast/desert like. leave it out if you're going for savoury.)

-1 cup flour
-tbsp sugar
-1/8 of a tsp salt (pinch)


What to do:
-Mix all the wet ingredients in a blender. (slowest setting)
--Make sure to crack the eggs into a bowl or measuring cup first just in case some shell escapes. This makes it easier to fish out.

-Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl and stir with a whisk.
FUN PART!
-Pop the middle part out of the blender lid .
-Put the lid on the blender.
-Rest the middle part on top just in case it splashes .
-Turn the blender back on the lowest setting .
-After you turn it on, you can remove the middle.
-Take a spoon and start adding your dry mix to the wet one.
-Keep going until it's all added and then give it a couple more seconds to mix fully.
-Turn off the blender.
-Let it sit for 5 minutes.

-Let your frying pant heat up on a burner set to about medium.
-Put a little bit of butter in the pan to grease it lightly.
-When it's ready pour in some batter and tilt the frying pan around in a circular manor to spread the batter out. You want a big thin layer of batter covering your frying pan.
NOTE: It's ok if the shape isn't perfect. They still taste delicious.
-Let it sit until it completely changes colour from beige to more yellowy, and the edges appear dry.
-Flip it over and let it sit for about 30 seconds.

-Repeat until you run out of batter.

This recipe makes 8 crepes. It makes for a nice breakfast for two.
