Crepee Sunday

Every time I make crepes, I have a nostalgic moment dating back to my 10th grade French class, where I first learned how to make them. It was very easy and included ingredients every household possessed. I remember making them in substitution for actually pancakes for everyone's breakfast that morning. I topped them with  strawberries, peaches, and maple syrup. Later that summer, I went to France with my French club and had the most delicious crepe at a cafe near Vesaille Palace. The crepe was smothered in chocolate and vanilla extract hmmm. Well, today I don't have strawberries, chocolate, or maple syrup. Since it's a rainy crappy day in Philadelphia, I'm going to make it shine with my peachy crepe. =)

 Ingredients: (serves 1)

  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup of flour
  • 1/3 cup of milk
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 2 peaches
  • Honey
  • Powdered sugar
  • Butter


Directions:
  1. Mix egg, flour, milk, and vanilla extract in a bowl.
  2. Heat a thin slice of butter, when melted, pour half of the batter in the pan. Spread it out thinly like making an omelet.
  3. Flip when you feel like the other side is cooked.
  4. Remove from pan onto a plate.
  5. Peel the peaches and wedge them. Place them on half of the crepe, then fold it over.
  6. Dust some powdered sugar on top and drizzle the honey to suit your sweetness desire.
