Soufflé Crêpes

7 ingredients
5 steps

Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs, separated
  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 1/4 cups milk or half-and-half (light cream)
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • About 2 tablespoons melted butter or margarine

Directions

  1. 1
    In a bowl with mixer on high speed, beat egg whites and cream of tartar until they form a thick foam. Continue to beat, gradually adding sugar until whites hold stiff moist peaks.
  2. 2
    In a blender, whirl egg yolks, milk, flour, and baking powder until smooth; scrape container as needed. Pour into whipped whites; fold gently until mixture is thoroughly blended.
  3. 3
    Use a crepe pan or regular or nonstick frying pan with a bottom that measures 7 to 8 inches across. Set pan on medium heat; when hot, brush bottom with butter (as needed or for flavor, in a nonstick pan). Pour 1/2 to 2/3 cup batter into pan all at once, and with the back of a spoon spread to cover pan bottom evenly. Cook until crepe is golden brown on both sides, turning once with a wide spatula, 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 minutes total.
  4. 4
    Invert crepe onto a flat plate; cover with a sheet of plastic wrap. Repeat to cook and stack remaining crepes (it gets thinner as it stands; stir often), tilting pan to coat bottom evenly.
