Ingredients

Check you have the quantities below.

  • 1 cup / 120 g all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups / 360 ml milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 cup / 120 ml orange juice
  • 1 tsp orange zest
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Let’s make it

  1. Whisk flour, milk, eggs, melted butter, and salt into a thin batter; rest 10 minutes.
  2. Cook 8 thin crêpes in a lightly greased skillet, about 1 minute per side.
  3. For the sauce, simmer butter, orange juice, zest, sugar, and vanilla for 2 to 3 minutes until slightly syrupy.
  4. Drizzle the sauce over the crêpes and fold or roll to serve.

Kids can roll their own crêpes and add only a little sauce if they like.

Cooking time varies with equipment and batch size. Follow school allergy rules for children’s meals; keep perishable lunches cold.
