Why You Will Love This Recipe

Versatile. These are great to have savory or sweet, making it easy to satisfy any craving.

Easy To Make. All you need is a blender and a pan, which you probably already have in your kitchen.

Family Favorite. For my family of seven, we make two batches at a time, and they are popping off the plate the minute they are out of the pan. I don't always have time to fill them with anything at all.

Ingredients

There are a few differences in this crepe recipe from others you may see out there. Let me explain.

Mineral Water. What makes these crepes super fluffy, yet thin, is this fizzy water. No more rubbery crepes! Use any brand that you like. I have used flavored mineral water as well, and that was tasty too. My favorite flavors are lemon and orange.

Greek Yogurt. I love the flavor Greek Yogurt gives these crepes, while also providing nutrients like calcium and protein. How about the probiotics? Well, this is a question I had as well and here is a great article explaining what happens to the probiotic when heated.

How To Make Crepes At Home

With just a few steps, you will have crepes ready in no time!

Make the crepe batter. Place all the ingredients, except mineral water, into a bowl. Using a hand mixer, blend all the ingredients together. Add the mineral water and blend into the batter at the lowest speed.

This crepe batter does not need to rest. The mineral water softens the batter, creating a very soft and thin crepe.

Cook the crepes. Heat a pan over medium-low heat, spraying the pan with cooking spray or a small amount of extra-virgin olive oil. My first crepe is always a trial one. I need to get the hang of swirling the pan to coat the bottom evenly with the batter. The rest seem to go much smoother. When the edges start to pull away from the pan, it is time to flip the crepe and cook until slightly brown on both sides.

⅓ cup of batter makes one thin 9 inch crepe. I use the cast iron frying pan.

What To Serve With Crepes

Make a bacon, egg and cheese breakfast crepe. This is a family favorite.

Nutella and strawberry crepe.

Storing Crepes

Refrigerate the crepes flat in a plastic gallon bag or a round plate covered with plastic wrap. They will store well in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Crepes freeze well in a plastic gallon bag. Just pop them in the microwave to warm and thaw. But honestly, you shouldn't have any crepes left to freeze, these are that good!
