French Crepes for Kids
This French Crepe recipe is a fun, simple recipe to cook with young kids. My grandmother’s Crêpes are truly as easy to make as 1-2-3. The end result are thin, light and spongy crêpes that remind me of the ones we would get in France.

Instructions

Whisk 3 large eggs in a bowl with 2 cups of milk. Sift 1 cup of flour. Whisk together until smooth. Add a pinch of salt to taste. For flavor I like to add in some lemon zest. Sometimes I will add half a teaspoon of pure vanilla extract. Feel free to add the flavoring you wish but they are also yummy without. Pas de stress!

This batter is excellent when it sits overnight, but honestly, I rarely have the foresight to do this. Most times I whip up the Crêpe batter right before eating.
