Crepes

Crepes- 1950's
"Swedish Pancakes"
" ' Old country' flavor without old-time fussing!"
Pancake Donut (2 yr old talk)

This a great basic crepe recipe! I love crepes, but rarely ever eat them.  When I was reading through the recipes this was called, "Swedish Pancakes".  I never thought of a crepe as a Swedish pancake before, but maybe I need to know more about crepes.  I also love the tag-line underneath it. " ' Old country' flavor without old- time fussing." I wonder what old time fussing is. What do you think that they had to do that would have taken longer to make this? Grind the flour themselves?  I guess I will never know.

Anyways, this is a great basic crepe recipe. The crepes where sweet and thin. There are a lot of different things that you can put inside it, but I just went for some strawberry preserves. Now that I know that I can make these, I might just look up other great things that I can put in the middle. :) Enjoy!
