Pancakes with Nutella

Votes: 1

Crepe stands are common all over the world, but we'll show you how to make them the French way. Batter with melted butter (or, better yet, fried until nutty) is poured onto a griddle and spread with a wooden skewer. Bubbles form on the crepe, then the batter sets and turns golden. The crepes are then spread with a thick layer of Nutella (hazelnuts and chocolate, whipped into a sweet, creamy paste). One of life's simple joys!

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

Melt the butter in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Continue cooking until the butter turns golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside. The residual heat will cause the butter to darken further, so turn off the heat when the butter is golden, but not dark brown.
In a medium bowl, carefully whisk together the eggs, yolk, water, milk, and salt. Add the flour and whisk until smooth. Slowly pour in the brown butter, whisking constantly. Strain the mixture, if necessary, to remove any lumps.

Wipe out the pan you melted the butter in with a paper towel. Place over medium heat. Using a measuring cup, measure out 1/3 cup of batter and pour it into the center of the hot pan. Swirl the pan to coat the entire surface—the thinner the better. Return the pan to the heat and cook for 2 minutes. Using a rubber spatula, lift the pancake by the edge and flip it.

Fry on the other side for 30 seconds to 1 minute, depending on how browned you want it.
Place on a plate and spread 1 tablespoon of Nutella (or as much as you like) on the crepe. Fold the crepe in half, then in half again, forming a triangle. You can also roll it loosely into a tube. Serve with strawberry topping.
