For this month’s Bread Baker’s Mayuri of Mayuri’s Jikoni suggested pancakes from around the world as the theme. I was surprised to learn about so many different variety of pancakes from different countries. There were quite a few I want to try but for today I chose to make French crepes.
Today being Valentine’s day, I felt strawberries and nutella would make an apt filling for these delicious crepes. I followed Julia Child’s basic crepes recipe, which I found in this site. I spread some nutella generously on the lacy sweet crepes and stopped with sliced strawberries. Need I say more?? Let’s jump into the recipe now.
Strawberry Nutella Crepes
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup cold milk
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp salt
- 2 tbsp melted butter
Instructions
- Combine the eggs, milk, vanilla extract and butter in a large bowl. Whisk the flour, sugar and salt.
- Add to the milk mixture and whisk until well combined. Batter should be smooth and lump-free.
- Cover the batter with cling wrap and refrigerate the batter up to 2 hours.
- Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add about 1/4 tsp butter and brush the butter on the frying pan.
- Pour 1/4 cup batter into the centre of the pan and swirl the pan so that the batter form a circle.
- Cook for about 30 seconds to 1 minute or until the edges start to turn slightly brown.
- Using a spatula, flip the crepe and cook the other side.
Notes
- If you find the batter is too thick, adjust by adding little milk or water.
