Still In Love: Crepes

I'm not quite sure why I had this thought in my head, but I always thought crepes were difficult to make.  And then I saw Daphne Oz make them on The Chew and thought, "Hm.  Maybe I can do this too!"

My latest version is an apple-cinnamon crepe.


The batter came out very thin so I added some more flour.  Now, I'm sure crepe batter is supposed to be thin like that, but because my pan bows up in the middle, really thin batter will just pool in the outside of my pan.  Maybe it's time for a new pan??

My grandmother makes these amaaaaaaaazing fried apples and I tried to replicate that and failed miserably.  Well, maybe not miserably, but they didn't come out like hers do.  This is what happens when Nicole doesn't follow a recipe!  I just put the apples in a saute pan skillet with some butter and sugar and cooked until they reached a nice caramel color.  Which meant that I had some crispy parts due to the cooked sugar.  My husband liked the crispy texture, but I wasn't a huge fan.

I think I'll call my grandmother and see how she makes them.  To be continued...

  1. Lookin' tasty! What I really got from this post was that the Daphne from The Chew is related to Dr. Oz. I didn't know!
