Egg free Crepes


This is one the kids will really love help making and eating!

3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
3 tbsp sugar
pinch salt
1/4 cup applesauce
1 cup flour
1 cup milk
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

Mix the melted butter, applesauce, salt and sugar until well blended.  Slowly add the milk, vanilla extract and finally the flour.  Whisk all the ingredients until well blended.  Get the kids involved with measuring and mixing all the ingredients.
Heat a small non-stick skillet on medium.  Once heated, lightly spray with cooking spray.  Pour 1/3 cup of the batter onto the skillet and swirl the skillet around until it completely covers the bottom of the skillet and is a thin layer of batter.  Cook for 45 seconds - 1 minute until light golden brown, then flip with a spatula or fork.  Cook on the other side until light golden brown.  I usually have to cook 1 or 2 crepes to get the timing down right. 
Makes 7-8 crepes.
The kids like coming up with new ideas for stuffing the crepes, so far they have tried: cream cheese with strawberry jelly (pictured), peanut butter and jelly, nutella, bananas with vanilla pudding and of course plain sugar. 
Bon Appetit!
