As a special treat, surprise your sleepy family with these fancy-looking (yet simple-to-make) breakfast crepes. Served with fresh fruit and powdered sugar, or butter and syrup, these thin rolled pancakes make a light and delicious breakfast.

Ingredients

• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 3 eggs
• 1 1/2 cups milk

• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• Vegetable oil

Instructions

1. Combine the salt, sugar, eggs, milk, and butter in a blender until well mixed. Add the flour and blend until smooth. Let the batter chill in the refrigerator for at least half an hour.

2. When you're ready to cook, heat a small amount of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat, then blend the batter once more. Drop a few tablespoons of batter in the pan, tilting and rotating the pan to spread the batter uniformly over the bottom.

3. Cook until the underside has slightly browned and bubbles form on the top of the crepe, then flip the crepe and cook until the other side has slightly browned.

4. As you cook them, stack the finished crepes on a warm dish, then, when you're ready to eat, let everyone fix them to their liking. Makes approximately 20 crepes.
