Best French Crepes Recipe
I don’t know about you, but when I’m missing an ingredient at home and we still really want to eat what we had in mind, well, we find solutions! I had to find another version than my traditional best French Crepes recipe because the butter was in the chocolate fudge from the weekend (yes, I know…). The result being tip top, I share with you this new recipe of pancake batter without butter! And yes, Candlemas is coming!
You can use this pancake batter for savory versions with an egg, ham, a little mushrooms (or other…) as well as sweet versions. And as for the sweet, I advise you to accompany them with homemade sweets like :

I’m curious to know how you like your pancakes? Salty or sweet? And with which ingredients?
