Ingredients You’ll Need

1/2 cup Krusteaz Buttermilk Pancake Mix 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 1 1/4 cups water 2 eggs, beaten 2 tablespoons butter, melted

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preparation: Preheat a lightly greased 5 to 6-inch frying pan or crepe pan over medium-high heat. Mixing Ingredients: In a medium bowl, stir together the Krusteaz Buttermilk Pancake Mix and all-purpose flour. Gradually add water, stirring until smooth. Adding Eggs and Butter: Add the beaten eggs and melted butter, then continue to stir until the batter is perfectly smooth. Cooking the Crepes: Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of batter into the center of the frying pan. Tilt the pan to ensure the batter coats the bottom evenly. Just a thin layer should cover the pan. Cook the crêpe until it's delicately browned. Turn it and gently cook the other side until lightly browned. Serving Ideas: For a nostalgic breakfast, fill the cooked crêpes with fresh or frozen, thawed, and drained berries. Roll them up and dust with powdered sugar. For a dinner twist, stuff the crêpes with chopped spinach and ricotta cheese. Roll them up and top with marinara sauce. Sprinkle grated mozzarella cheese on top and place under the broiler until it's hot and bubbly.
