Thanks for writing Bev! I love crepes because they are so light and for whatever mental reason I dress them up healthier than pancakes. Glad you liked them.
This recipe looks amazing! And you’re right I never thought I would be able to make crepes but maybe I should give it a try one of these days, plus it would be great to make the batter before and just have to cook them in the morning. Thanks!
Kristen, they are no harder than pancakes! You definitly should try. Thanks for commenting.
