Yesterday, Jordan and I made two batches of these lovely little pancakes! About 55 of them- we only ate about 8 of them- the rest are going to a diversification meeting at his workplace. That is why HE made the second batch and cooked them himself. I love this wonderful delicious treat- but making them by yourself is tedious. So making them with him was a lot of fun and good times.
He had a good time, as well- even though I gave him a hard time about his first couple of tries and made him eat them rather than allow them into our pile of possibles for the dinner.
Here’s the recipe
Ingredients:
3 whole eggs, beaten
1 cup milk, scalded, cooled
1 1/4 cup AP flour
1 tsp sugar
pinch of salt
1 cup of carbonated water(club soda)
Method:
add sugar and salt to eggs and beat up again. Add small amount of milk to eggs, whisk, then add rest of milk and whisk until smooth. Add flour- whisking continuously – about !/4 cup at a time, until batter is smooth . Then add the club soda and mix together until smooth and slightly bubbly.
Heat up crepe pan until hot – water skidding across surface when you place a drop or two into the pan. Drop a small pellet of butter- less than 1/4 tsp – into pan and turn to coat bottom, immediately pour a little less than 1/3 cup of batter and turn skillet around to coat the bottom forming a thin pancake. Allow to cook for about 45 seconds to a minute- the top of pancake should appear dry and then turn it over and cook another 45 seconds or so.
Spread with nutella, or creamed cottage cheese mixed with honey , or whatever you prefer in the center and roll up. Then top with syrup or fruit or just confectioner’s sugar.
And enjoy!
Well, that looks like fun! Cooking together is always more fun than cooking alone, even if you have to share the goodies afterwards!
I know- I always love to cook with you! And to share it with each other! That is one of the best things about M’s house in Chincoteague.
They look really good! And I love crepes, I might try this myself.
You should try them, Janis! it is an easy recipe and they are good with savories as well, like mushroom and onion, or chicken – They are great if you make them ahead of time and reheat them!
—Italian yeasted bread and a sourdough loaf… this was how I found you – looking for a recipe! Could I please get it from you?
