Pancake lovers, unite! We’ve got a delicious recipe to share with you for Chandeleur, the French holiday celebrated with crepes.
First, let’s start with the star of the show: the crepes themselves. You’ll need the following ingredients:
Ingredients:
- 250g flour
- 4 eggs
- 50cl of milk
- 1 tablespoon of sugar
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1 tablespoon of oil
Mix all of the ingredients together in a large bowl, ensuring that there are no lumps in the batter. Next, let it rest for at least an hour.
Once the batter is ready to go, start heating up your pan on medium heat. Make sure to add a small amount of oil, just enough to coat the pan. Pour in enough batter to coat the entire bottom of the pan and let it cook for about a minute or until the edges start to lift up. Flip it over and cook for another 30 seconds.
Now that you’ve got the basics down, let’s get to the fun part: toppings! The possibilities are endless, but here are a few of our favorites:
Topings:
- Nutella and strawberries
- Lemon juice and sugar
- Ham and cheese
- Spinach and feta
No matter what you choose, make sure to heat up your toppings first so they can be easily spread on the crepes without cooling them down.
Now go forth and enjoy a delicious and festive Chandeleur with these amazing crepes. Bon Appétit!
