crepes and crepes and crepes

I went a little crepe happy the past few weeks. My love for them was reignited by the cutest little crepe and coffee shop we discovered down the road from us.. a favorite date spot now.
Here is a super easy recipe to make your own. You'll be hooked too.

crepes

2 large eggs
1 cup milk
1/3 cup water
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons butter, melted

In a blender or food processor, blend all ingredients until smooth. Stir down and repeat, if necessary. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour (I always skip this though, since i'm impatient)
Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat, spray the pan with oil, lift the pan from the heat and pour in 1/4 cup of the batter, tilting and totating the pan to coat the surface. Cook until almost dry on top and lightly browned on the edges, about 1 minute. Loosen the edge with a spatula and flip the crepe over using your fingers, then cook the other side for about 15 seconds. Repeat with the remaining batter, coating the pan with oil each time.

Top with anything you want! My favorites are nutella and strawberries.
