Crepes are always a crowd-pleaser in our family.  Our favorite thing to do is create a crepe bar with both sweet and savory ingredients.  That way, everyone can assemble their own and try several varieties.

This simple recipe for crepes never disappoints.  It’s the perfect texture, flavor-profile and is very forgiving.  I like to blend it up in advance and keep it chilled in the fridge until we’re ready to cook them up.

These crepes can also be made ahead of time and frozen.  Simply cook them up like the recipe instructs, placing a piece of parchment paper between each cooked crepe.  When cooled, place them in a gallon-sized freezer bag and into the freezer.  Thaw in the fridge or on the counter for a few hours when ready to enjoy.
