WAYYYYYYYYY TOO EGGY

Too much egg. I love making crepes for my family, and was taught to make them by a french woman I know. I tried this recipe so I could make some just for myself, but they were too thick and "eggy". Considering how little flower there is in this recipe I would not use so much egg. If you are looking for a crepe that is lighter and more like a REAL french crepe do not use this recipe. -
Fantastic! Finally a super fast and simple recipe! I was able to modify this to fit my dietary restrictions using oat flour, almond milk, and coconut sugar, used a tad of coconut oil in the pan, and the result still came out perfect.<br/><br/>For people who had trouble getting the right consistency, I beat the egg/milk first with the rest of the ingredients, then slowly added flour until I got it just how I wanted it. Pour it in the pan and spread it around super fast because it cooks quick!<br/><br/>I'm a French girl so I love my crepes and was very pleased with how these came out. I made a savory version last night (instead of sugar I added a bit more salt) filled with greens, sliced turkey, emmental, and tomato bruschetta... and this morning made a sweet version with cinnamon-apple filling. Oh yummm. -
These were really tasty. I put chocolate chips and sugar. Also in another crepe I used Nutella and man this is GREAT -
Oh. My. GOSH! These crepes. Usually, when I make them, I sift the dry ingredients in and then strain the batter again, and also add more liquid until it looks pourable but still kinda egg-y. Seems like a lot of work, but with small batches like these, it's not! With an extra tablespoon or so of milk, this recipe is so freaking wonderful. Finally, crepes that are crispy and you can still taste the egg! Thank you :)

About a tablespoon of extra milk, and a tiny bit of cinnamon makes these even better :)

Add less egg!

Kefir instead of milk. -
This is perfect for just one person. I used Eggbeaters, 3/4 tsp Splenda & oat flour. I added about 1/2 tsp cinnamon & forgot the vanilla! Mine wasn't as thin as in the picture. I tried to make a filling with bananas, but made too much & it didn't work out :-). I am new to crepe making! Next time I will use bananas & just fold it over until they're nice & warm. Thanks for sharing this simple recipe. Update: I replaced a Tbsp of the flour with fat free cottage cheese to reduce the carbs a bit, and it still turned out wonderfully. I kept all the other amounts the same. Turns out delicious!
