Japan- Crepes


Crepes, of course, weren't invented in Japan but they've been a popular street food there since the 1970s. I decided to include them in my Japanese foods because it'd be nice to get Leigh and Erin eating a blog food for a change and they'd love these.

Ingredients:

I forgot to take a picture of the fillings we'd picked to go in our crepes. Plus I used store bought ready made crepes. Which we warmed up on our pancake maker.


Here's a link to a great description of all the toppings commonly used for Japanese crepes. We just went with sweet options this time for a quick dessert.


Here's one I made with strawberries, strawberry ice cream and sprinkles.


 Next one with peanut butter, brownie chunks, whipped cream and chocolate sprinkles.


Erin made one with whipped cream, mini brownie and chocolate sprinkles.


Japanese Crepes are sold from street stalls folded up like this with coloured paper wrapped around them. We all really enjoyed the crepes. We tried some new fillings that we previously wouldn't have thought of such as custard and brownie chunks. It'll certainly up our Pancake Day game come next year. I really enjoyed different flavour ice creams and fresh fruit in crepes. Delicious!
