ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour

• 6 tablespoons dried currants (divided)
• 1⁄2 cup sugar

directions

1. Put the flour, salt, eggs, and milk in a bowl and beat at medium speed until blended. The mixture will be a thin batter.
2. Prepare a non sticking pan of desired size by melting a small amount of oil or shortening to cover the bottom (the fat should be hot). Pour a scant 3 Tablespoons of batter into the pan, tipping it so that it coats the bottom. Sprinkle all over with 1/2 Tablespoon currants. Cook the first side until it is a golden brown. Turn the crepe with a spatula and cook the other side.
3. Turn the crepe out onto a large plate, sprinkle with sugar and lemon juice, and roll up.
4. Crepes can also be piled up and sliced in portions like a cake. Continue with remaining batter. Keep crepes warm in a 200°F oven. This recipe will make a dozen or more.

Ooooh these crepes were so good!! I made half the recipe using 1 extra large egg and 3/4 cup of milk and half of the other ingredients, worked perfectly! I sprinkled a little juice and sugar over top of the crepes when I served them. A great little recipe, so easy and delicious!
