Did you know that
If you are using stone pans you will not need to add oil or butter to the pan before pouring the pancake batter, as this type of material prevents food from sticking to the bottom. If, on the other hand, steel or non-stick pans are used, it is advisable to add a hint of butter or a drop of oil before preparing each pancake.- Once all the crepes have been prepared, they can be filled with whatever the imagination dictates. If not used immediately, the crepes can be stored in the refrigerator on a plate, well covered with cling film, for a few days.
Alice's comment - PersonalCooker
Here they are: in a few minutes we made 8 medium-sized crepes. I have prepared a classic example of sweet crepe, filled with red fruit jam: a delight for the eyes and palate!Nutritional values and Health Comment on the recipe
Crepes are discs of dough cooked in a pan. They have a slightly lower energy intake than egg pasta but their use, unlike the latter, always requires very low weights to the advantage of the filling or other accompanying ingredients. It contains few fats, most of which saturated, accompanied by cholesterol; dietary fiber is scarce.
