Crepes with Mixed Berry Sauce

Crepes are an easy and delicious breakfast recipe. They are thin French Pancakes with soft and tender texture. It tastes awesome with some mixed berry sauce and whipped cream on top.  You can also serve this crepes with maple syrup or Nutella with sliced bananas and then roll Crepes or fold them into quarters.

Furthermore, I would like to share some of my suggestions for making perfect crepes. Firstly, combine together flour, sugar and salt in a wide bowl, until combined. In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, melted butter and vanilla essence until incorporated. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture, gradually pour the egg mixture whisk until smooth. Strain if necessary to remove any lumps. Cover and set aside for 30 mins to 1 hour.

Another way to prepare crepes batter:

You can also make this batter simply by adding all the ingredients in a blender or food processor and process for about 30 seconds or until smooth. Then to let the batter settle and to allow the liquids to saturate the starches you need to let the batter rest for 1 hour or minimum 30 mins. You can also prepare this batter earlier and store it in the refrigerator for a day or two. But even better, you can make the crepes a few days ahead and then just reheat them in a warm skillet.

Next important thing is how to cook the perfect crepes. I have never owned a special crepe pan for this recipe. So don’t worry about buying a special pan to make crepes. You can also use your flat 8 or 9 inch non-stick pan to make these crepes. Heat a pan over medium heat, until a little water dropped on the pan sizzles just a little. Then lightly butter the pan. Lift the pan from the heat and pour a small ladle of batter in the center of the pan.

Tilt and swirl the pan to form an even layer and cook it for about 1 to 2 mins until the edges start to curl and the top looks almost dry. Then flip the crepe and continue to cook for 30 seconds or until it becomes golden brown in color.
