- 250 gr. sifted or fluid flour (type 45)
- 4 whole eggs
- 50 cl. slightly warmed milk
- 30 gr. sugar
- 50 gr. melted butter
- 1 sachet of vanilla sugar
- 1 pinch of salt
- Butter or oil for the pan
- Optional according to your tastes: amber rum, orange blossom, orange peel, lager, cider (alcohol evaporates when cooked) ...
Sift the flour and pour it into a large bowl forming a well.
Add the previously beaten eggs with the fork , the sugars and a pinch of salt . Mix everything with a whisk.
Gradually add the milk while continuing to whisk vigorously to avoid lumps.
Once the dough is smooth, add the butter . Add milk if it seems too thick.
Cover the dough and let it rest for 30 minutes at room temperature.
Once this time has elapsed, oil or butter the pan with a paper towel, a gesture to reproduce every 3 pancakes.
Pour a ladle of dough into the pan. Cook on low heat for 1 to 2 minutes on each side, so that the pancake takes a nice color. Repeat the process until the dough is gone.
Enjoy the pancakes cold or lukewarm (you can reserve them under a sheet of aluminum foil to keep them soft) just sprinkled with sugar, with jam, chocolate , whipped cream ...
Keep in the freezer any surplus of dough, in empty bottles for example.
The ideas and tips of the master crepe maker
- Choose quality products: so opt for whole milk rather than cremated. Side dishes, your pancakes will be even better with jam or homemade spread.
- Do not be afraid to experiment and discover new flavors by varying the flours (buckwheat, chestnut, rice ...) or the milks used (almonds, hazelnuts, soya, coconut ...). Know that for a more airy texture, you can also replace wheat flour with cornstarch.
- Look after the presentation of your plates, with pancakes rolled, folded into 4 or chaplets ... and why not in cake!
- Dare the color in your dough to entertain the little ones : pink with a purée of strawberries or raspberries, green by adding matcha tea (sparingly, its taste being pronounced).
