Crepes Suzette image

An elegant dessert of lovely, paper thin crepes in a delicious orange sauce. For the adventurous chef, use orange flavored liqueur and flambe it for a dramatic tableside presentation. Otherwise, orange extract can be substituted. For easier conversion, I added the measurements in metric.

I'm allergic to oranges. Can I use a different fruit in the sauce?

I'm not a fan of orange zest. Is there anything else I can use to flavor the sauce?

The sauce didn't really thicken up for me. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

The crêpes were a bit too thick for my liking. I think I'll try using a different recipe next time.

I thought the sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
