Ingredients:                                         

  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter

For the Syrup:
1 pint fresh or frozen blueberries, blackberries or a combo
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
1 tablespoon vanilla

Preparation:

Measure all ingredients in to blender jar; blend for 30 seconds. Scrape down sides. Blend for 15 seconds more. Cover and let sit for 1 hour. (This helps the flour absorb more of the liquids.)


Regular Crepe Pan Directions:
Heat crepe pan. Lightly grease. Measure about 1/4 cup batter into pan. Tilt pan to spread batter. Once crepe has lots of little bubbles, loosen any edges with spatula. Flip crepe over. This side cooks quickly. Slide crepe from pan to plate.
Top with Earth Balance spread and your homemade Vanilla-Berry syrup.
ALTERNATE RECIPE: If you're aghast at the idea of using a prepackaged baking mix (and let's be honest, we SHOULD be, because the less preservatives in our diet, the better), you can create your own with 1 cup of flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, a tablespoon of vegan sugar, and a pinch of salt
