Birthday Crepes- Mom


One of my favorite things about one of us kids having a birthday was breakfast.  I remember perusing the cereal isle for my birthday cereal- always searching for the box with the best toy.  As we got older, the choice became easier, and less about a cheap prize.  Birthday crepes have continued in my family as the birthday breakfast of choice.

I hope I never forget mom, standing over  the stove the night before a birthday, for what seemed like hours, just to make a pile of crepes for the next morning.  She always made us feel so special and it was definitely a labor of love!

Crepes

1 1/2 cups milk (I have used vanilla almond milk & they turned out great)
1 cup flour
2 eggs
1 Tbsp. oil
1/4 tsp. salt

Combine ingredients in a blender or with a whisk until combined.  Batter will be very runny.

Heat non-stick frying pan or skillet to med to med-high heat.  Spray with cooking spray and coat pan with a thin layer of batter.  Flip crepe when top looks dry.

Serve with cook & serve vanilla pudding, sliced strawberries, & whipped cream.
