Crepes

Some eat these for breakfast, others for dessert. In Sweden, people eat these crepes for lunch and dinner. The thing is, these crepes taste just as good any time of the day and you can use any filling of your choice. This recipe produces about 8-10 crepes.



Crepes:
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups milk
1 cup flour
1 tsp vanilla sugar/extract
1/2 tsp salt
1 tbs sugar (optional)

Filling:
Fresh sliced fruits/jam and whipped cream/ice cream/custard.

Melt the butter and let it cool. Beat the eggs and milk together. Add the butter. Mix flour and sugar and sieve into the egg mixture. Mix well without any lumps. Let the batter rest for about 1 hour in the fridge. Heat a pancake or crepe pan and oil/brush the pan evenly with it. Pour some batter and spread/thin it out evenly on the pan by taking up the pan and swirling it. Bake both sides of the crepes. You can fill the crepes with typically anything you want. I usually eat mine with whipped cream and jam. Enjoy!
