Easy and Simple Crepe Recipes

Matt and I popped into Creperi Cafe for one of our favorite greek gyro crepes. I always thought making crepes were something only professional chefs in France could make. Until I tried it myself. It does take a little planning, but they are SO easy to make. AND you don't have to have any major flipping skills to perfect them.

I wanted to introduce the world of crepe making just in case you were like me and thought, "No, I would never be able to make them." Just remember, the MOST IMPORTANT thing is making your batter the night before. For crepes, it's all about the batter.
