Simply Crepes Recipe

  • 1 cup whole-wheat flour

  • 1 egg

  • 2 egg whites

  • 1/2 cup 1 % milk

  • 1/2 cup water

  • 2 Tbsp trans fat free margarine

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all ingredients and beat until smooth.

    Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each crepe. Tilt the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly. Cook the crepe for about 2 minutes, until the bottom is light brown. Loosen with a spatula, turn and cook the other side. Serve hot.

    Stack crepes to keep warm as you cook. Serve crepes either plain folded in half and then quarters or rolled up after spreading with your favorite filling.
