Instructions
Whole Wheat Crepes
- Combine all crepe ingredients into your blender. Cover and process for thirty to forty seconds. Scrape down accumulated batter from sides of container and process for another few seconds. Your batter should be smooth and consistent.
- Spray your frying pan. Heat it to medium low heat.
- Test your batter. Place a half tablespoon of crepe batter into heated pan. Tilt your pan in a circular motion. Your batter should move around your pan freely. If it does not, lower heat a touch. Once it does, remove your test batter from the pan.
- For each crepe, pour three to four tablespoons of batter into your heated pan. It should thinly coat the bottom of your pan. Cook for about one minute. Your crepe is ready to flip when it can be lifted without breaking.
- Cook the second side of your crepe until light brown spots begin to form. It should take about one more minute on the second side. Remove from pan and repeat until all batter has been cooked.
