Product Information

It also means that it was designed for use with food, so it won’t be treated with any inedible chemicals that you would want to keep out of your delicious crepes. While both crepes and pancakes contain many of the same ingredients, the amounts are just different enough to make the crepes a thinner batter and resulting food. The versatile Lodge Cast Iron Griddle Pan is very affordable and might become one of your go-to pieces of cookware. If you’re looking for stylish cookware that will last for decades, we love the Le Creuset Enameled Cast Iron Crêpe Pan. How We Selected

In the past, I've hosted gourmet meals, pizza nights, a basic pot roast dinner, sandwiches with chips and dips, and finger food meals. One thing I always wanted to host is a weekend brunch with friends. I've perfected many classic recipes, but the crepe is one that just recently became part of my skillset. Non-electric crepe makers are less cumbersome than electric crepe makers and allow for more manual control by the user both when it comes to the heat level and batter spreading. If you add too much batter to a pan, it’s easy to pour off the excess. There is something so decadent about crepes and you might think that they are reserved for professional restaurants. Several of the sets listed below come with a handy crepe spatula. This style looks different from a regular spatula because it is long, relatively thin, and designed specifically to support and flip your crepes. Crepes are part of a full breakfast or brunch and should be served alongside more of your favorites. I always start with this oven baked bacon. My kids always want to see my best French toast on the buffet alongside some fluffy Belgian waffles. I almost always add a pan of these cinnamon rolls with cream cheese glazeas well on the sweet end of the buffet.

Some crepe makers are designed with just crepes in mind, while others are meant to cook other foods, as well. Electric models will typically have a raised lip around the edge of the cooking surface to contain not only batter, but also egg yolks, juice and grease from meat, and other liquids. Consider the food you want to cook as well as the other pans and tools you have. If storage space is tight, a model that can serve double duty can be helpful. If your crepes turn out too crispy, then it is most likely you have cooked them in a pan that is too hot. Your pan should be over medium heat, and shouldn't be so hot that when you pour the batter into the pan it immediately sets up. However, with the right tools you can make professional quality, delicious crepes right at home that you can load up with your sweet or savory fillings.

Lastly, mix in the vanilla (or other extract and flavor) and then cover and set aside to refrigerate for one hour before cooking. One of my favorite things to do is to entertain. I love hosting friends and family at my home. Big Sunday dinners after church are part of my childhood, and I learned from both my mom and grandma just how much joy can come from sharing a meal with those you love. If you have decided on a wooden crepe spreader, then you want to make sure that it is made from cookware-grade wood. This means that it won’t damage your pots or pans, so you can feel confident in the quality. You can make crepes in a special crepe pan or if you buy the right sized crepe spreader, then you can use whatever frying pan you already have. If you’ve ever used wooden utensils, then you know that they can start to flake a little as they age. Some higher-quality sets of wooden crepe spreaders have this issue covered.This versatile pan is perfect for pancakes and crêpes, but it can also be used for vegetables, tortillas and sandwiches, with its shallow edges allowing you to easily maneuver your ingredients,” explains Aysegul Sanford, a Lodge fan and food blogger of Foolproof Living.
