Quick Crêpes Suzette Recipes

KATE'S EASY CREPES SUZETTE

Steps:

• Cream the powdered sugar into the butter until you have a smooth texture.
• Add lemon zest, lemon juice, and Grand Marnier. It will break down (look a little curdled) when you add the citrus and alcohol but that is okay.
• Spread the mixture over each crepe.
• Fold the crepes in quarters and pile together.
• Keep crepes warm in a 200 degree Fahrenheit oven.

ORIGINAL FRENCH CRêPES SUZETTE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a big bowl, vigorously whisk the flour, milk, water, eggs, 2 tablespoons of melted butter, orange juice, orange zest, and salt until the batter is completely smooth. Allow the batter to rest in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes before making the crêpes.
• Use some of the remaining melted butter to grease a crêpe pan , large skillet, or nonstick skillet. Heat up over low-medium heat.
• Add 3 tablespoons of batter to the pan and swirl it until the bottom of the pan is covered with batter.
• Cook the crêpe for 1 minute, or until the crêpe is slightly moist on top and golden underneath.
• Loosen the edges of the crêpe, slide a spatula under it, and then gently flip it. If you don't have a spatula, use your fingers, a fork, or carefully flip it in the air using just the pan.
• Cook for 1 minute and transfer the cooked crêpe to a plate to keep warm. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, lightly greasing the pan with melted butter every time. Set aside.
• In a large skillet set over medium heat, melt half of the butter until it foams.
• Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle half of the sugar over the melted butter.
• Carefully add half of the orange liqueur. The mixture will ignite.
• When the flame goes out, add each crêpe to the pan to coat both sides in the orange syrup.
• Fold the crêpes into quarters or roll them up.
• Melt the remaining butter in the same skillet, remove it from the heat, and add the remaining sugar and Grand Marnier.
• For serving, place 1 or 2 crêpes per person on a plate, top with a scoop of ice cream, and drizzle with orange syrup. Serve immediately.
• Enjoy.
