Lucky Me! Plum Crepes on a Monday Morning.

Love is your partner getting up extra early to make you crepes in the morning.
In case you wanted to show some good lovin' to someone special of yours, here's his recipe.

Rob's Morning Crepes
2 eggs
1 cup of milk

2/3 cup of all-purpose flour
1 pinch of salt

1 1/2 teaspoons of vegetable oil

1/4 teaspoon of vanilla or almond extract -or- scrapings from 1 vanilla bean


What You'll Do...
1) Combine all the ingredients in a blender until smooth. Cover and let sit in the fridge for an hour.


2) Heat a shallow frying pan over medium high heat and give a light coat of oil. Pour 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan, tilting and rotating it to cover the entire surface. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, flipping it over only once, until it's golden. Repeat with the rest of the batter.


3) Fill and roll with your favorite ingredients. (Rob used some plum jam which was divine.)

  2. Hey Garrett! This looks yummy! I always make my [gf] "pancakes" thin like crepes. And even though I had some yesterday, with banana medallions, chocolate chips, and fresh raspberries, I could go for more today. :) I'm curious why you let the mixture sit in the fridge for an hour after it's blended. Happy breakfast!
