Crepes
SUBMITTED BY:

"This French delicacy is extremely versatile, as it can be filled with virtually anything -- fruits, pudding, mousse for desserts as well as vegetables and meats for dinner. No need to add more oil each time unless the pan begins to stick. Freeze extra crepes for later use."

DIRECTIONS
In a blender combine eggs, milk, flour, salt and oil. Process until smooth. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and brush with oil. Pour 1/4 cup of crepe batter into pan, tilting to completely coat the surface of the pan. Cook 2 to 5 minutes, turning once, until golden. Repeat with remaining batter.

One of the easiest, and best crepe recipes around! If you are pressed for time, use a whisk and bowl instead of a blender; substitute butter for the oil, and you are ready to cook in about 2-3 minutes. Normally though, try and let the flavour & consistancy develop by standing.

These are excellent! I added 2 tsp. vanilla and a pinch of cinnamon. I also put mixture in blender instead of whisking which helps. I used 2 sauces inside: Sauce A. 1 1/2 c. blueberries, 1 tb. cornstarch, and enough water to cover bottom of a pan. Bring to a boil, stirring until creates a nice blueberry sauce. Sauce B: 8 oz. cream cheese and gradually add fruit juice (i had leftover from a fruit salad I made but any juice would work) until comes to a desired sauce consistency. These 2 sauces combined on these crepes are delicious! My husband and daughter loved them!

All aunts, uncles, and cousins on husband side of family live in Paris. We visit often and I live on crepes for our entire visit. Our family has taught me how to spot the good crepe stands and this recipe reproduces a great crepe. One key is to make sure your batter is "runny" enough that you can move it around your pan before it sets up. If it's too thick you cant get a nice thin crepe. Great recipe!

Very good crepes. I like them slightly sweet so I added 1 Tablespoon sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla. I used butter flavored PAM cooking spray and about 1/4 cup for each crepe.

This is a good recipe for basic crepes which I have used often. For those times when I want a sweeter, dessert-type crepe, I substitute standard yellow cake mix for the flour, since it contains just the right amounts of sugar and vanilla flavoring. The result is a lovely, delicately-flavored dessert crepe.

So delicious! I made these for dessert and didn't feel like refridgerating them for an hour so I just made them right away. A yummy addition is to buy a bag a frozen mixed berries, thaw a bowful out in the microwave for 50 seconds, and use a blender to beat with cool whip. Add a scoop of ice cream and it makes a great dessert!

Super easy and not greasy! This recipe will replace the one I've been using for years and years. I used whole wheat pastry flour. We stuffed them with cottage cheese and fresh stawberries. A little powdered sugar never hurt either!

Great recipe. I love that it uses less fat than most. I used white kernel whole wheat flour and only waited 40 minutes on the batter since I was in a hurry. They turned out great. Thanks.

I also did not wait an hour, but these were perfect! Excellent taste, great texture, my kids and husband couldn't get enough. I had a large pan, so I used 1/3 cup and they were the perfect thickness.
