My husband loves to make (and eat!) these crepes. Â He can eat lots of them but I have to limit myself to a few as they are more filling than they seem! Â The batter can be mixed the night before so all you have to do in the morning is pour it. Â They are very nice, and low carb too, however high fat content because of the cream. Â Some experts these days say that’s good. Â We heard a local Nanaimo chiropracter, Dr. Stefani, give a talk recently on Health Over 55, and he recommended eating lots of fat and doing lots of excercise. Â They seemed to give Sid the energy he needed for shoveling the driveway today anyway!
Ingredients:
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup 18% cream
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- jam or other filling
Method:
Preheat a non-stick frying pan to medium-low.
Whisk the eggs and then gradually add in the cream and flour alternately while continuing to whisk. Â Whisk in the melted butter and vanilla.
Pour one crepe at a time onto the frying pan and flip it when the bottom is done.
Spread with your favourite jam or other filling. Â Cinnamon & sugar is also nice, or fresh strawberries, or whatever you might like to try.
Mmm, so nice for a special treat! Â They go down easy, but make you feel full for hours! Pictured is my share; Sid eats twice as many!
