One Bowl Berry Coffee Cake

I had some berries they weren’t being eaten so I made this delicious berry cake. I had fresh berries but you could also use frozen. This cake is so easy to make, and you only need one bowl.

Simple Crepes

I love crepes for breakfast. This is an easy and delicious recipe that my whole family enjoys. 

 My husband and daughter like theirs with syrup, but I prefer mine with a sprinkle of sugar and a squeeze of fresh orange juice inside (then roll it up).




Simple Crepes
Adapted from: Smuckers Stuffed Crepes with Raspberry Mango Syrup
Makes about 10 crepes

Ingredients
  • 3/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • pinch of salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • butter for frying
Directions
  1. Whisk all ingredients together in a large bowl until well combined.
  2. Melt some butter in a nonstick pan (or crepe pan) over medium high heat.
  3. Take 1/3 cup of the batter and place it in the pan, swirl it around immediately to form a thin layer. Cook for a few seconds until the top starts to bubble. This won't take long so don't walk away. Flip the crepe and then cook only for a few more seconds until golden. Set on a plate and repeat the process until all the batter is gone.
  4. You can put the plate in a 200F oven just to keep the crepes warm until ready to serve.
  5. Serve with syrup, fresh fruit, jam or a sprinkle of sugar.

    Wow, these look amazing! I love how you've lined the blueberries and oranges along the edge of the crepe. I've included a link to your blog post on my site about my dad's simple crepe recipe! Cheers! Heather
