I first fell in love with buckwheat pancakes in Brittany, France. Crepes are their regional specialty. I have always wanted to make them in the U.S. but have never been brave enough. I suggest goat cheese with walnuts in the buckwheat crepes.

Excellent post and pics!

Crepes are in regular rotation here. My mom makes them every special weekend–holidays are weekends that my brother and I are home–and we eat them drizzled with melted butter, lemon juice, and powdered sugar. My recipe for crepes is very similar to yours, except I use only AP flour and nonfat milk instead of whole milk (for me, I end up with thinner, more tender crepes with lower fat milk). My mom and I never use sugar in the batter. I don’t know why, we just never have.

I love your filling recipe here. I’ll have to make this, and soon.

You’re the 40zillionth person to tell me that La Vie en Rose is excellent. I have to remember to put in my Netflix. I’ll go do that now.

This is my first visit to your blog and it’s very interesting. I will definitely try to make some crepes. I first had them on a visit to Montreal, Canada. They are delicious

Susan—I’m so glad I found your blog and led you to this one. Give these crepes a try; they really are pretty simple.

Paris is my favorite place in the whole world! My husband and I are already dreaming of retiring there. We still have a long way to go.

We must be kindred spirits, because I bought a few of Cara Black’s books a few months ago and I just picked up my La Vie en Rose DVD a few days ago.

Your crepes look lovely! I am really good at eating crepes, but not so good at making them. I love them all, though. Sweet and savory.

Those crepes are perfect, Terry. I love savory fillings, but my favorite crepe filling is melted dark chocolate sauce and warm strawberries. Simple but classic and oh-so-good.
