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.

Crepes Recipe

4 Cup milk
5 eggs
½ teaspoon salt
1 Tablespoon sugar
2 Cup flour
1 Tablespoon oil or butter for frying

Work together as a team and assign different tasks to each child so 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 batter before each crepe. If you have an older group of kids take turns frying a crepe making sure everyone gets a turn. If you have a younger group of kids have an adult fry crepes while kids mix together homemade syrup recipes for the crepes kids cooking party, play cooking games or decorate aprons.
