From the very beginning, weelicious has always been somewhat of a science experiment. Cooking for kids is not always the easiest road to navigate and no matter how much I think I know, I continue to learn more daily about their food preferences, behaviors, likes, and dislikes. What I have found to work one day may not be as successful the next, while other recipes have surprised me by being sure fire hits every time I make them.

The latter has been the case with my kids and crepes. They fell in love the first time I made them. And I’m wild about crepes for the same reason I love Oatmeal in the Crockpot — because I can do all the work the night before. In the morning all I have to do is pour the batter into a pan, fill with anything my kids desire (from bananas and cream cheese, to berries and Nutella, to butter and fresh herbs), and voila! Plus, to make this simple crepe recipe just a bit more nutitrious, I use white wheat flour in place of enriched white.

Just when you think your kids won’t be open to trying anything new, pull out the ingredients for these special crepes and let them help you create a dish it is almost impossible not to love.

  1. Do you think that these will work ok w/skim milk? That’s what we have around the house. Thanks for the recipe!

  2. Check out Elizabeth’s comment below! If you make them with the subbed ingredients, please let me know your results!

  3. I would try subbing the milk with rice, almond or soy milk and the egg with 1 flax egg (2 tablespoons ground flax seed + 3 tablespoons water)

  4. You can try using whole wheat flour, but they won’t be as light and airy as whole wheat flour is more dense.

  5. These sound so good! I grew up eating crepes but never thought to stuff them with this yummy-sounding filling — will have to try it ASAP!
