Strawberry And Cream Cheese Crepes

After seeing many places with their crepe pan and spreader, I thought I wouldn't be able to made crepes without these necessary kitchenware. There is a way around it and I couldn't be any more happier with the outcome. The crepe batter is one of the easiest recipe to find in the house and I made about 10 5-inch crepes (typically, crepes are approx. 10-inches) that were stuffed with a sweet strawberry cream-cheese filling.

 

Serves 4

Crepe Ingredients:

• 1 cup of all-purpose flour
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1/2 cup water
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted

Crepe Directions: 

1. Combine all crepe ingredients into a large mixing bowl. After mixing in the milk and water, gradually add the salt and butter; beat until smooth.
2. Heat a non-stick small skillet over medium heat. 
3. Pour about 2 tablespoon of batter into skillet and tilt skillet in a circular motion to spread batter thinly and evenly. 
4. Cook only a minute or so on one side (until it is lightly browned) and loosen with spatula to flip to cook other side.
