Orange Butter Crepes With Rum Recipes

THE EASY, NO WAITING, DELICIOUS CREPE RECIPE!

Steps:

• Sift dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking powder and salt) together in a mixing bowl.
• Add 2 cups milk and stir until blended.
• Add the final 2 1/2 cups of milk and stir until blended. It is okay if there are a few lumps. Add beaten eggs and stir until blended. The batter should be slightly thicker than unwhipped whipping cream. If it is not, then add more flour or milk until it has reached this point.
• Turn stove on to medium-high and warm a large non-stick pan.
• Melt 1/2 tsp butter (or oil) on pan. To test if pan is hot enough to begin making crepes, place a drop of batter on the pan. Batter should start bubbling immediately.
• Use a ladle to pour batter into pan. Tilt the pan to spread the batter evenly across entire pan.
• Check bottom of crepe to see if it has browned at all. If so, flip crepe. Wait another 30-45 seconds and then remove from pan.
• I usually put the crepes in a covered tray in the oven on 200degrees Celsius to keep them warm.
• To eat, I recommend sprinkling a tablespoon of sugar evenly on the crepe and adding about 5-10 drops of lemon or lime juice. It may not sound very appealing, you'll have to take my word for it, it's delicious! Roll up the crepe and enjoy!

ORANGE CREPES

Steps:

• Crepes.
• Using a blender put all dry ingredients in first.
• Turn on a slow speed and add eggs, and then slowly add milk, orange juice, vanilla, and orange zest.
• Turn up the speed and mix well until smooth and no lumps.
• Put a teaspoon of oil in a hot 8" or 9" pan (use medium setting). Let the oil and pan heat.
• Holding the pan above the burner, pour ¼ cup of batter into center of pan as you rotate the pan to evenly spread the batter all around.
• Cook for about 30 seconds until the bottom is browned in a speckled pattern.
• Flip over and brown the other side.
• Roll up in the pan and put on a plate.
• Repeat with the rest of the batter.
• Sauce.
• Mix ½ cup orange juice and 1 tsp of cornstarch in a bowl. Stir.
• Add to pan and heat until thickened, stirring occasionally.
• Pour over top of crepes.
• Optional: Include other fruits and/or whipped cream.

ORANGE BUTTER CREPES WITH RUM

Steps:

• Finely grate orange peel to taste. Try it first with approx 1 tablespoon.
• Melt the butter so it is liquid.
• Combine grated orange peel and all ingredient (except the fresh fruit and ice-cream!) into a blender and blend until smooth.
• Place in refrigerator. This is to allow bubbles to dissipate, but if you're in a hurry you can leave out this step and results are still good.
• Lightly oil or butter your pan. I don't have a special pan for this so I use a wok!
• On medium heat pour in some batter and swirl until you get a thin circular crepe.
• When golden brown on the edges (they will lift up slightly), quickly roll the crepes and arrange on a dish.
• Arrange 2 crepes on a large plate, dust with chocolate/cocoa powder, and arrange seasonal fruit and ice-cream on the plate.
