Nalesniki (Polish Crepes)
3 eggs
3/4 cup milk
2 Tbsp. sugar |
1/2 tsp. salt
6 to 8 Tbsp. flour |
Beat eggs. Mix sugar, salt and flour well together and
stir quickly into the eggs. Add milk and beat hard.
Have ready one or more heavy six inch crepe pans, lightly
buttered and well heated. Pour just enough batter into each to cover the
bottom of the pan when it is tilted and swirled. Shake the crepes over
the fire until they are slightly browned on the bottom and firm to the
touch on top.
Do not turn. Put them aside to cool. This may be
done several hours before serving.
