Swiss Pancakes

Every culture has their version of pancakes. In France, they are called crepe's and in Switzerland they are called Swiss Pancakes. My husband gets upset with me if I call this recipe "crepes" because well, his family is Swiss.

So anyways, here is a quick and (fairly) easy meal. We like to have it Friday nights as a special treat (since it can be really sweet if you add raspberry jam and whip cream like we do! :)

3/4 Cup Flour

4 Eggs

2 Cups Milk

1/2 tsp salt

1 tbsp sugar

1 tbsp oil

Put dry ingredients in bowl (we always use our Kitchenaid) Add oil and milk, blending until smooth. Add eggs and beat again. Beat well. Batter should be very thin. Bake on hot griddle. Turn over and roll up.

Mike usually does the actual cooking part. It kinda takes some practice. He uses a ladle to get the batter onto the pan. Make sure the pan is GREASED and HOT before putting a ladle-full into it.

Flip it once. Again, it takes some practice. They should be pretty thin. You can tell when they need to be flipped when they start to bubble.

These taste good with a million different things. We usually do jam, fresh fruit, whip cream, or sometimes just syrup if we don't have anything on hand. Tonight we had them with fresh organic white peaches and whip. 

Baby approved!
