Here it is: the best crepe recipe I've ever tried anywhere. And I've tried plenty.

I'm not kidding. Throw away every other sweet crepe recipe you have, because you'll never need them ever again. Ever. 

Ingredients:

1.5 Cups flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 Tablespoons sugar.
30 g melted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
2 Cups milk
3 eggs, lightly beaten

Method:

Mix the dry ingredients in one bowl and everything else in another.
Once the butter/milk/egg/essence mixture is nice and smooth tip it into the dry bowl and mix thoroughly.
You may need to add a little more milk, the mixture should be quite runny.
Cook in a pan over a medium - high heat.


Enjoy! Other than the first one, every crepe will be perfect. 

For this.



I'm using Alison Gofton's recipe for banana cake at the moment and I gotta say it comes up REAL good.

Use this:

Quick tips: for good measure add in a tablespoon of plain yoghurt if you have it.

Also ... bananas are best mashed up and left overnight in the fridge. The pulp goes good and black!

Your kids will love you just a little bit more ... for about two minutes. And then they'll be back to complaining about how unfair life is cos they don't have a Playstation and you're the meanest dad in the world.
