Crepes originated in Brittany, France, and are a popular street food in Paris. They can be made sweet or savory, and are commonly enjoyed as breakfast or dessert items. The classic french crepe recipe usually consists of flour, milk, eggs, and sugar. The crepes are thin and delicate, yet crispy and buttery on the edges. This recipe of butter and sugar crepes is simple, quick and absolutely delicious. The sweetness of the sugar melts in the butter, caramelizing on the crepe, giving it an irresistible taste.
