Hi Rosebud (I knew a lady whose actual given name was Rosebud-very sweet!)–I agree, that’s the hard part to get when you first start making crepes. I would end up pouring batter back into the bowl.
Those peanut butter/chocolate/banana crepes sound DELICIOUS! I have to try that! Mmmmm!

Crepes are such fun to make, intimidating to the first-timer but so much easier than they look. Much easier to make than tortillas since you don’t have to roll them out. The hardest part is realizing how LITTLE batter you need to pour at a time. I found a small round griddle at my thrift store that is PERFECT for them since it has no sides on it.
My two picky-eater boys love crepes. I like to smear them with peanut butter (organic, of course), wrap them around a banana, and give a squirt of chocolate sauce and sprinkle of powdered sugar. Simple, yummy, healthy and easy dessert…or breakfast!! I haven’t tried whole-wheat though, so you’ve inspired me. Perhaps I’ll make some today!
