Ingredients list for the buckwheat crepes
For 20 crepes:
- 3 cups (500g) of buckwheat flour
- 1/2 cup (50g) of wheat flour
- 2 tablespoons (15g) coarse salt
- 34 fl oz (1 liter) of water
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp of honey
Directions
1. In a large bowl, add the two flours. Add the salt and half of the water, mixing gradually. In a bowl, mix the egg and honey with a little of the dough. Beat with a fork and add the rest of the dough. Then beat it with an electric whisk or by hand. The more you whisk, the lighter the dough is. Leave the dough in the fridge for a few hours. Only when you are ready to cook should you add the remaining half liter of water.
2. To cook the crepes, butter a large skillet or crepe pan. Pour a ladle of batter and spread it over the entire surface. Return after a few minutes to cook the other side. If you need to fill it a second time, do not let it brown too much. You can prepare all the pancakes in advance by wrapping them in a cloth. Then you can top them as the guests wish.
