Spinning Star

Today is the first day of spring! What better way to celebrate than with a batch of homemade crepes? Serve these for breakfast with strawberry jam, blueberries and whipped cream or sliced bananas and Nutella. Have them for lunch or supper with ham and grated cheddar or shredded chicken and sour cream. Better yet, make a double batch and store half in freezer bags, separated by squares of parchment paper.

Blender Crepes

1 cup flour

1 cup milk

1/2 cup water

4 eggs

1/4 cup melted butter (plus extra butter for cooking)

1/2 teaspoon coarse salt

Combine all ingredients in blender; blend until smooth. Heat a small nonstick pan over medium heat. Add 1/2 teaspoon of butter; tilt pan to spread melting butter. Pour enough batter to cover bottom of pan. Cook until the bottom begins to brown. Turn and cook flip side until almost brown. Makes about 12 small crepes.
