Crepes Kids
Cooking Party
We
recommend having a smaller group for this Crepes kids cooking party.
To get a hands on experience older kids can cook crepes in a small fry
pan with adult supervision. If you'd like to hold this party for a
younger group of kids I suggest mixing the crepe batter together at the
party then having an adult cook crepes for safety reasons. You can move
the kids on to a different activity such as playing a cooking game or
preparing syrup ingredients while crepes are cooking.
To get started you will want to
download
this crepes recipe card
for each child that will be at the party. This
will give them each a chance to follow the recipe while they are
preparing the menu. It is also a good idea to include an extra one for
them to take home so they can impress their own family with what they
learned at the cooking party.
Once you know the number of children coming go through the list of
things needed especially utensils, bowls, etc. If you need extra ask
friends or family if you can borrow some items for your crepes kids
cooking party.

Crepes Recipe

4 Cup
milk
5 eggs
½ teaspoon salt
1 Tablespoon sugar

everyone has a turn adding or stirring. Add eggs one at a time to
mixing bowl.
Lightly beat eggs. Stir in milk, sugar and salt. Add flour
and mix well with an electric mixer.
Let rest for 10 minutes.(Set aside
and prepare syrup ingredients) If necessary add more milk so batter is
thin. Heat small fry pan to very hot. Add oil to coat pan. Reheat. Add
batter to just cover bottom of pan. Turn to brown other side. Set on
plate and cover with a towel.
Reheat pan no need to add more oil. Stir

frying a crepe making sure everyone gets a turn. If you have a younger

syrup recipes for the crepes kids cooking party, play cooking games or
