About


Making crepes is a lot easier than you think. This batter is made in the blender and can be seasoned or sweetened according to your needs. Fill them with anything you want. Nutella is a favourite for kids, but they are also delicious with sliced fresh fruit and whipped cream or made savoury and filled with chopped ham, cheese,chicken or seafood for an entree or appetizers....the possibilities are endless and yummy!
