for a special Breakfast or brunch: Basic Crepes From the Kitchen of: Lorita Sutton
Ingredients: 3 Tbsp. butter
3 eggs, slightly beaten
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup water
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 tsp. salt
Butter
Cottage Cheese Filling
Strawberry sauce
Recipe instructions: Melt butter in 8 inch crepe or skillet. Pour butter into mixing bowl, set pan aside. To mixing bowl add eggs, milk and water; beat with rotary beater. Blend in flour and salt till smooth. Refrigerate batter for 2 hours or overnight. Note: Allow 2 to 3 crepes per serving. To Freeze: Leave crepes between sheets of waxed paper. Wrap in foil. To reheat in oven: Remove wax paper, wrap in foil and heat in preheated 325 degree oven for about 15 minutes.
Recipe instructions: Place buttered crepe pan over medium-high heat until hot enough to sizzle a drop of water. For each crepe pour 3 Tbsp. or a scant 1/4 cup batter into pan/skillet, rotating pan as batter is poured. Crepes should be thin lacy pancake almost immediately. If too much batter is poured into pan, pour off excess immediately. If there are holes, add a drop or two of batter for a patch. Cook until lightly browned on bottom; turn and brown other side. It may be necessary to add more butter to grease pan before pouring in batter each crepe. Stack crepes between sheets of paper towels or waxed paper until ready to use. Spread 3 Tbsp. Cottage Cheese Filling down the center of each crepe; fold the two sides over the center. Serve with Strawberry sauce

My Notes: I try to remember to make the crepe batter the night before unless eating a late breakfast or brunch.
I usually use frozen berries and thaw them unless there is a good sale on berries
I'm glad that you are feeling better.
Everything looks so good, but those enchiladas are amazing! I need to make some! As well as sheetpan pancakes.😋
Loved your hair – style and color – just perfect for you! The mallows looks so yummy and fun. I've never understood the differences between enchiladas, tortillas, or other similar mexican dishes, what makes each of the sauces different? Are they named after the grain shape and size, or method of cooking, or what do the names stand for? Yours looked just wonderful using the beautiful meat you made. Makes me want to try it all over – been years. I held my breath when you crunched up that enchilada pancake then unfolded it – perfect, no tears, rips, cracks or crumbles. It was amazing, great tip! Glad your better and continuing to increase in health.
Love banana pancakes! When I can get a good deal on bulk bananas, I can them up so I always have them on hand. During winter we try not to go to store at all for the last few years. threeriverschallenge
We're on a similar wavelength this week! I also made a beef and barley stew… chuck roast in the instant pot, shredded then canned carrots and canned potatoes, plus previously cooked and frozen barley, and then anything I had that needed to be used up… leftover roasted root veggies, leftover okra, leftover roasted peppers and onions… heck, I don't even remember, but I know that pot was FULL when I was done. Oh, and I added a potato thickened gravy from earlier in the week. Great way to use stuff up! I also made banana bread, but now I'm sad that I didn't even know this recipe was a thing!!! Totally making this version next time! (Though I'm gonna have to buy the instant coffee cause I don't keep that on hand.) I haven't had to do sheet pan pancakes in quite awhile because I have a stash in the freezer. I love them (maybe only because of the convenience) but not everyone is a fan of the cake like texture. Happy that you are on the mend finally! You have my sympathy on the mouth pain. This past year I've started clenching my teeth and I can't seem to break the habit. Mouth guard doesn't work cause I clench 24/7, not just while sleeping. I've worn at least 1 tooth down to the point that the root is exposed and I suspect I have hairline fractures in others. I hesitate getting them fixed before I fix the clenching, because I worry about the possibility of grinding down the materials they use for caps and fillers. If I am ingesting tooth material, at least it is natural, but that composite stuff they use is not meant to be ingested! sigh Its always something, right?!? I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers while you get through the current health issues. BTW, love that you used that LOTR clip! And hey, some of your weather is down here in GA, drunk in my yard. Ima gonna need you to come get it. 😄We're expecting single digits tonight and I am not a fan!
So glad you are feeling better Kelsey! I've been sick a week and sure hope it doesn't last 2-3 more 🙃
I am glad you are feeling better. I am slowly transitioning to be more mindful and using up food in the house before running to the store. Baby steps. My goal is to produce enough produce from my 2024 garden that I don't need to rely on the store during the winter for those items.
You’re so entertaining and come up either way amazing ideas for us at home. ❤
It is « laam » meaning Blade in english (I live in France☺️)
I just found your channel and im excited I did, I live on a tiny homestead and love gardening, homemaking, cooking from scratch and decor. Seems you are the same. Do you have a video showing your kitchen it looks beautiful.
What do you eat when you cook meals with gluten and other things you've eliminated from your diet?
it wouldnt hurt to see a dentist if it doesnt go away because sometimes that sinus pain is referred pain from the gums/teeth. also, food intolerances are another. i know for me my food intolerances didnt show up until after i was recovering from a bad cold/flu.
I bet those sheet pan pancakes would make a good breakfast version of a pumpkin roll. A little whip cream and fresh fruit with a dusting of powdered sugar and a drizzle of syrup.
Pronounced LAHM meaning blade in French.
So glad you're feeling better. I enjoy watching your videos and plan to try making some of your meal suggestions.
Take care, stay safe and God bless
Glad you're on the mend
One of my favorite memories is watching a group of abuelas making flour tortillas~no rolling pin, no press, just patting them with their hands. They made dozens in about 20 min. SO cool!
That swirl bread looks amazing! Also, now I want beef and barley soup lol. I haven't had that in ages.
One of these days I’m going to experiment with adding milk and acid separately to a recipe when substituting for buttermilk. My theory is that the acid just needs to be present to react with the leavening agent. I can’t see any reason why the milk actually needs to curdle to make it all work. Curiosity has me questioning. =)
Those cute little hands, adorable☺
I liked your meals!
I also have trouble with my tortilla press.
These recipes look so delicious! I really enjoy your content. Those enchiladas though…perfection! When I make from scratch suppers, I always tell my family that there’s a lot of love sprinkled in there! You have lots of love sprinkles for your family! ❤
If you have a gluten issue why use preshreeded cheese?
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Great video…….looks good
That banana bread was a work of art!
Have you tried the skillet loaf using gluten free flour? I would love to try this!!
