Easy to Make Crepe Recipe

I used to make crepes all the time for breakfast, but I haven’t made them in years. One day while hanging out on Pinterest I saw a pin for crepes and I thought, “Duh! I need to make some crepes.” I gathered my crepe recipe and ingredients and made crepes for breakfast the next morning. One thing I love about crepes is how versatile they are. They are like a French tortilla <lol>. You can fill crepes with anything savory or sweet and they are delicious. I usually make breakfast or dessert crepes. Over the years I have filled crepes with fruit, whipped cream, Nutella, fruit preserves, scrambled eggs and bacon, ice cream…the list goes on and on.

This particular day I made strawberry preserves/whipped cream and strawberry preserves/Nutella crepes for breakfast. I need to try to re-create the vanilla cream filling from the crepes at Bob Evans because that filling with fresh fruit is delicious in a crepe.
