Crepes(Wednesday Morning)

On Wednesday morning I made crepes with breakfast. They didn't turn out real well mostly because we don't have a crepe pan. To make crepes you need the fire pretty high for a short amount of time. Which means it is hot enough to melt plastic spatulas. But I couldn't really use a metal spatula because I needed it to be pliable to get up under the crepe and flip it. A true crepe pan has a very little lip on the side which allows you to flip it with much more ease. So they tasted really good but unless you have a crepe pan I wouldn't suggest making them.
Crepes:
1 C Milk
4 eggs
1 T. Rapidura
1 C. Flour

1. Put everything but the flour in the Vita-Mix. Turn it on to variable speed #1 quickly increase speed to #4 or #5. Run for 5 seconds.
2. Remove lid plug. Add flour through lid opening. Replace lid plug. Run for 5 to 10 seconds, until mixed.

Pour about 1/4 C. batter into a lightly buttered crepe pan. Spread batter all over the pan by tilting. Flip when it is rubbery to the touch on the top and golden brown on the bottom. Cook for another 10 to 30 seconds. Enjoy with butter and honey or jam or ANYTHING YOU WANT!! Be creative.
