directions
- Place flour in a large bowl and make a well in the center.
- Pour the eggs into the center, then beat with a wire whisk. Mix well.
- Add the milk very gradually, and blend completely.
- Add the butter, salt, vanilla and sugar and mix until thoroughly incorporated. The batter will be thin.

- Heat a flat non-stick pan over medium or medium/high.
- Ladle 1/4 cup portions of the batter into the pan, or pour from a measuring cup.
- Cook each crepe 1-2 minutes per side.
- When the crepes are done, roll them up, and place on serving plate.
- In a small saucepan, mix the water, 2 tsp sugar, and marmalade together. Heat over low heat and bring to a simmer. Reduce the liquid until it becomes a thin syrup.
- Drizzle the crepes with syrup and garnish with orange slices.
- In another small saucepan, heat the orange liqueur until small bubbles form (do not boil), then carefully light with a long match. Caution: keep face away from the pan. Carefully pour liqueur over the crepes before the flames die out.
