These are not pancakes, these are thin cr\u00eapes also known as cr\u00eapes dentelle (lace crepes).
\nI use them for everything from cr\u00eapes Suzette to savoury confections. Cr\u00eapes can be served as is, with maple syrup, or filled with fruit and covered with either ice cream or any number of sauces. They can also be used in savoury dishes and filled with vegetable (like asparagus) or seafood (like crab) and covered with a sauce (like b\u00e9chamel). The possibilities are endless. Feel free to add flavourings such as orange zest or fresh herbs in your batter according to what dish they will be used for.<\/h2>\n

Ingredients<\/h3>\n
\n
½<\/span> cup<\/span> Flour<\/span><\/div>\n
1<\/span> tsp<\/span> Sugar (IF making a sweet dish otherwise omit)<\/span><\/div>\n
½<\/span> tsp<\/span> Salt<\/span><\/div>\n
1<\/span> cup<\/span> Milk<\/span><\/div>\n
4<\/span> <\/span> Eggs<\/span><\/div>\n
3<\/span> tbsp<\/span> Melted butter cooled<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Directions<\/h3>\n
\n
\n
\n

Combine dry ingredients<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Pour in a blender, food processor or mixing bowl, the eggs and half the milk, add the dry ingredients and mix<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Scrape the sides and add remaining milk and the melted butter<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Let stand overnight (if possible) in the refrigerator or at least a few hours<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

When ready to cook, take a frying pan the size of the cr\u00eapes you want to make, (nonstick are the best), wipe it with a little bit of oil, heat it and pour just enough batter to cover the bottom of the pan by swirling it around<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Lift the side delicately to check the colour, when it is golden flip the cr\u00eape and cook a few minutes more<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Slide the cr\u00eape on a warm plate.
\nYou can pile them up and keep them warm in the oven set at the lowest temperature.
\nThey can be made ahead and refrigerated.
\nIf you want to freeze then it is best to separate each crepe with a piece of parchment paper before wrapping the whole pile.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7905,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","recipe_category":[57],"class_list":["post-7425","cp_recipe","type-cp_recipe","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","cp_recipe_category-sweet-sauces"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/flyingplates.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/cooked_recipe\/7425","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/flyingplates.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/cooked_recipe"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/flyingplates.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/cp_recipe"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flyingplates.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flyingplates.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=7425"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flyingplates.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/7905"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/flyingplates.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=7425"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"cp_recipe_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flyingplates.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Frecipe_category&post=7425"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
