Des sucreries pour le goûter

 All the children and staff want to thank the kind family who treated us with cakes to celebrate Mardi Gras.
 Anniversaires: on fait sauter les crêpes chez les GS et CP



First we put some flower into a bowl.








Then we add, some sugar, some eggs and some milk.
Next, we mix all the ingredients together really well and we let the dough rest.
Finally, we ate them with Nutella, sugar, jam and maple syrup. They were delicious!!
La maternelle aussi a fait sauter des crêpes:



We  learned the French names for the ingredients:
les oeufs- eggs
La farine-flower
Le sucre- sugar
Le lait-milk
Le sel-salt
le beurre-butter

Original recipe makes 8 crepes
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted

    Directions

    1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and the eggs. Gradually add in the milk and water, stirring to combine. Add the salt and butter; beat until smooth.
    2. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each crepe. Tilt the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly.
    3. Cook the crepe for about 2 minutes, until the bottom is light brown. Loosen with a spatula, turn and cook the other side. Serve hot.
