Crepe Recipe for France’s Crepe Day Next Week

Creperie La Brigantine, Saint Malo, FranceCrêperie La Brigantine, Saint Malo, France


If you need a recipe to flip some crêpes on France’s Crepe Day (La Chandleur), we got one for you!  We just recovered from eating a few (too many) galettes des rois and now it’s time to eat (too many we hope!) crêpes.  That’s right, the festivities will kick off on February 2nd with “la fête de la Chandeleur” and crêpes will be enjoyed throughout the month of February.  Actually in France, crepes are enjoyed year-round and even more so in Brittany where “se faire une crêperie” (go eat at the creperie) is a regional pastime and the selection is grand.   And how about some warmth with this summer shot of “La Brigantine”, a crepe (including buckwheat crepes – a favorite!) restaurant in Saint Malo, France.  Would so love to open my French doors too right now, but a bit early for February.
