I used pineapple juice (from canned pineapple) instead and it worked perfectly! I also misread it and accidentally added in the cornstarch but it turned out just fine, I enjoyed my crepes slightly crispy, and they were very easy to make-- didn't rip easily. Didn't try the sauce, just ate it with pineapple chunks. Thanks for the recipe!
