Healthier Basic Crepes

I love this recipe because it is so simple to make. I have made it healthier by substituting whole wheat flour and 1% milk. I like to fill them with non-fat plain Greek yogurt and blueberries warmed in maple syrup. Yum!

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 1 cup white whole wheat flour

  • 2 eggs

  • ½ cup low-fat (1%) milk

  • ½ cup water

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted

  • ½ cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt

  • ¼ cup maple syrup

  • ½ cup blueberries

Directions

  1. Whisk together flour and eggs in a large mixing bowl. Gradually add milk and water, stirring to combine. Mix in butter and salt and beat until smooth.

  2. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat. Pour or scoop 1/4 cup batter onto griddle. Tilt pan with a circular motion so batter coats the surface evenly.

  3. Cook crepe until bottom is light brown, about 2 minutes. Loosen with a spatula, turn and cook other side. Serve hot with yogurt, maple syrup, and blueberries.
