Tyler Florence - Crepes!

He has made it easy by using the blender! We love an excuse to mix a sauce or batter in our new blender.

Crepes do not have a very complicated recipe, but it isn't always easy to get it right!
Using Tyler's recipe, I had the best results yet. I rolled a slice of ham into the crepe and served with maple syrup. Easy, fast and yum! (We might have shared one crepe filled with Nutella too!)


Tyler's Recipe:

Ingredients

  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • Pinch salt
  • 1 stick (4 ounces) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon butter to brush the crepe pan

Directions

Add milk and eggs to blender and combine. Add the flour 1/2 a cup at a time, blending after each addition to ensure there are no lumps. Add pinch of salt and melted butter then blend for 30 seconds until you achieve a smooth, silky consistency. Set aside in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to rest.

Dip a piece of kitchen paper in butter and grease a small frying pan. Ladle a spoonful of batter into the pan. With a flick of the wrist swivel the pan in order to get a nice even covering all over. A good crepe should be paper- thin. Cook on a high heat and flip it over when you see the edge turning golden brown.
