We love crepes at our house. We use soft white whole-wheat flour
to make them full of protein, vitamins and fiber. Butter is almost a must. And
these crepes are delicious.
I just developed this super simple, berry bursting spread recipe
to serve with the crepes, and I love it! If you prefer only sweet, dessert-like
fillings, simply omit the green onion. I personally love the contrasting flavor
they add to the dish, so I prefer to leave them in.
