Every now and then, I convince myself that I need to make something other than pancakes and waffles for Saturday breakfast. But in those moments when I really don’t feel like it, and I still want pancakes or waffles, and the hubs is completely over it, we compromise and I make crepes. It’s quick, it’s fun, and who doesn’t love a crepes bar with all the toppings you could want. Berries, nutella, bananas, chocolate chips, whipped cream, powdered sugar…can you see just how easy it is to really go wild here? Let’s get cooking!

Allow each side of the crepe to cook for about two minutes or until golden. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until you have use all of the batter.
Roll or fold the crepes however you would like, top them with strawberries, sprinkle them with powdered sugar, and enjoy.
