Chef's tips

How to avoid lumps: for an infallible anti-lump tip, mix the solid ingredients first, then add the liquid ingredients and finally the eggs.

Don't hesitate to serve yourself a second helping and serve with a good cider! For those with a sweet tooth, you can also add 5 spoonfuls of cocoa powder to your batter to make a delicious chocolate crepe batter. For pan-frying, I recommend that you melt a little butter in a bowl and dip some kitchen roll in it to spread the butter in your pan: you'll save a lot of butter!
