Low-Fat, Lower Calorie and Great-Tasting Crepes image

We love crepes, but not so much the heavy calories and fat from a traditional crepe recipe. This recipe creates the same consistency crepe as you'd want for breakfast, skip the Splenda for a dinner crepe, and it's super easy, too.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 30m

Yield 16 crepes, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 cups skim milk
3 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 teaspoons sugar substitute, such as Splenda
1 cup all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons margarine, melted, such as Smart Balance
canola oil cooking spray

Steps:

  • Prepare 8-9 inch diameter saute pan by heating on low heat on stove.
  • Beat eggs together with milk using whisk.
  • Add vanilla extract and Splenda and continue to blend.
  • Add flour in increments, blending into the mixture.
  • Drizzle melted margarine into batter, continuing to blend with whisk. Set aside.
  • Turn heat up to medium on saute pan, and spray lightly with cooking spray for the first crepe. If the cooking spray turns brown, the pan is too hot. The spray should remain a clear color.
  • Add 1/4 to 1/3 cup of the batter to the center of the pan. Pick up the pan and swirl the batter to where it forms a circle. (A circular crepe takes practice. The key is to keep the batter thin and uniform in the pan.).
  • When the outside of the crepe's edges start to brown and the top of the crepe is no longer a wet appearance, flip the crepe over. Let it cook just a minute more so it's cooked through. Remove from pan onto a plate. Flip the crepe into a half, then another half, where it forms a quarter of a circle shape.
  • Continue the steps above until all the batter has been used.

These crepes were a bit too thick for my taste. I think I'll try using less batter next time.

These crepes were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding more milk to the batter next time.

These crepes were amazing! The batter was so smooth and the crepes cooked up evenly. I filled mine with Nutella and strawberries, and they were the perfect treat.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my crepes kept sticking to the pan. I ended up throwing them all away.

These crepes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some spices or herbs to the batter next time.
