This is a great way of making crêpes without having to weigh everything out each time. Using a permanent marker, simply mark up the outside of a large, clean jam jar with the levels first time round, then next time, fill, shake and go! These are equally good topped with fruit and a little grated dark chocolate for breakfast or dessert.
Ingredients
For the pancakes
- 150g/5½oz wholemeal plain flour
- 1 large free-range egg
- 375ml/13fl oz semi-skimmed milk
- 1 tbsp rapeseed oil
- salt
For the toppings
- 150g/5½oz light mature Cheddar, grated
- 400g/14oz sweetcorn, from a tin or frozen and defrosted
- 400g/14oz carrots, peeled and finely grated
- 400g/14oz courgette, finely grated
- 400g/14oz15g/½oz lean wafer thin ham, shredded
Method
- Measure the flour into a large clean jam jar. Add the egg and milk and a pinch of salt then place the lid on firmly and shake well until the pancake mixture is smooth.
- Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium frying pan over a medium heat and swirl it around the pan, then tip the oil into a heatproof bowl.
- Pour a tenth of the batter into the pan and swirl it around so that it covers the base of the pan in a thin even layer. Cook for 45–60 seconds until firm and just golden, then flip over and cook on the other side for another 15 seconds.
- Tip out onto a plate and repeat with the remaining oil and batter, wiping the pan out with kitchen paper between each one.
- Scatter whichever toppings you fancy over the top, then fold into quarters or roll up into a pinwheel and eat straight away.
Recipe Tips
If you have any leftover crepes, stack them on a plate and allow to cool, then cover with clingfilm or transfer them to a resealable food bag, and place in the fridge until needed. They will keep in the fridge for up to 2 days.
