- Melt 2 Tablespoons of butter, allow to chill and add it to the batter.
- Pour the batter through a sieve to remove any lumps. Place in the fridge to chill for 15 minutes
- Combine the sugar and cinnamon and place aside.
Let's Get Cooking - 5 Minutes
- Heat 1/2 a teaspoon of butter in a non stick medium sized pan (if you don't have a crepe pan)
- Reduce the heat to medium.
- Pour in a ladle of the batter (about a quarter cup) it should be enough to just coat the pan.
- Allow the crepe to cook on one side completely (takes about 2 minutes) then carefully lift the crepe and flip it. Cook the other side until golden.
- Once cooked, squeeze some lemon juice over the crepe and sprinkle some cinnamon sugar. Roll it up.
- Repeat this for the remainder of the batter
