Your own personal crêperie



We ate "flat pancakes" a lot growing up at my house. You sound much more high brow, calling them French crêpes. Oddly, the recipe that always we use is Norwegian; it came from Jeremy's mission cookbook.

Whatever they are called, they have become your absolute, must-have-at-least-4-times-a-week, favorite.

Pannekaker

  • 3 cups flower (375 grams)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 3 eggs (extra egg optional)
  • 3 cups milk (almond milk works fine)
  • 4 drops vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons melted butter
  • Holiday-appropriate food coloring, as desired

Mix the dry ingredients together; add milk, eggs, and vanilla; beat batter well. Stir in melted butter (or just dump everything into the vitamix and go with it).

Fry in a medium hot greased frying pan. Serve with lemon juice and sprinkled sugar (your favorite). Or peant buter (my favorite). Or Nutella. Or berries and whip cream. Or cinnamon sugar. Or whatever else strikes your fancy.
