CREPES + CINNAMON SWIRL CRUMB CAKE, MUFFIN EDITION

i've been terrible at keeping up with my blog. it is something that i really love and wish i had a little bit more time for!! since i started my nanny job i have been so busy... there has been no time! :( so here i am, laying in bed posting at least SOMETHING! and of course it has to do with food. i haven't been proud of myself the last 2 weeks when it comes to my eating habits. i'm getting back to my routine though. slowly but surely.

growing up we put vanilla ice cream in our crepes. ice cream and maple syrup. that's it.  when i married dave, i was so concerned the first time i had crepes with his family and they didn't have any ice cream out. i was like, "what the heck?!" dave thinks i'm a weirdo with crepes, he says, "that's not breakfast food!!

also, this was my very first time making crepes. my first two were pretty decent. my last one i ripped as i was flipping.... hence the big hole.

6 eggs

3 cup milk

2 cup flour

3 tbsp. sugar

1 tsp. salt

beat eggs and milk slightly; add flour, sugar and salt.  beat until thoroughly mixed.  let batter sit for 10 minutes until all air bubbles are gone.  pour 1/2 cup batter into greased pan; cook for a few minutes on each side.

served with // fruit, vanilla ice cream, cinnamon & sugar, whip cream and maple syrup

today i made these with the kids.  children love to cook with you. it's adorable.  i had a Krusteaz Cinnamon Swirl Crumb Cake mix sitting in our pantry that i decided to pull out this afternoon. instead of making a cake, we made muffins. the little girl that i nanny kept saying, "can i lick it now?" the entire time we were mixing it together. :)
