Mom's Favorite Recipes



Dessert Crepes

I love making Crepes. It isn’t difficult and they are good alone or stuffed. I have made turkey crepes after Thanksgiving, tuna, and an egg mixture to put into the crepes.


So a dessert crepe isn’t a far stretch either. I can put any type of fruit inside. Then cook additional fruit to a syrup to pour over the crepes. Then top with powdered sugar. Yum!


4 eggs, beaten

1 ½ cups milk

2 Tablespoons butter, melted

1 Cup flour

2 Tablespoons Sugar

½ Salt


  1. Whisk eggs, milk, melted butter, flour, sugar and salt.

  2. Heat a small skillet pan over medium heat. Grease pan with butter or oil.

  3. Spoon batter into the pan tilting it so that the whole pan is covered.

  4. Cook, 1 to 2 minutes then flip. Cook till toasty brownish.

  5. Fill with cut fruit. Fold in thirds.

  6. Place seam down on a plated. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.

  7. Drizzle with chocolate syrup, if desired.




Caramel-Apple Skillet Buckle



My grandma made a version of this for me when I was a little girl—and fresh apples from a tree in her backyard added an extra-special touch. I’ve adapted her recipe because I love the combination of apple, pecans and caramel. —Emily Hobbs, Springfield, Missouri
