Not quite as thin as true crepes, these light-as-a-feather pancakes are topped with preserves and a dusting of confectioners' sugar. They're elegant, so easy to make and say Joyeux Noel with delicious French flair!
Ingredients:
2/3 cup milk
2 eggs
1/3 cup water
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
preserves of your choice, optional
additional confectioners' sugar, optional
Directions:
1. In a blender, combine the milk, eggs, water and vanilla; cover and process until well blended. Combine the flour, confectioners' sugar, baking powder and salt; add to egg mixture. Cover and process until smooth.
2. Heat a lightly greased 8-in. nonstick skillet over medium heat; pour 2 tablespoons batter into the center of skillet. Lift and tilt pan to coat bottom evenly. Cook until top appears dry; turn and cook 15-20 seconds longer. Remove to a wire rack.
3. Repeat with remaining batter, greasing skillet as needed. Spread preserves over pancakes if desired; roll up. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar if desired. Yield: 8 pancakes.
