Hawaiian French Toast

If you have recently had french toast for breakfast your stomach is going to hide into the furthest corner of your abdomen in shame after reading this. French toast will never be the same again after adding coconut to its mixture. As Emmeril Lagasse would say: "let's kick it up a notch!" Hawaiian style.

1 teaspoon vanilla

maple syrup or other syrup (can you imagine the possibilities with this recipe?)

Crepes (Norwegian pancakes)

This is a favorite in my household. I grew up having these almost every Saturday. I know a lot of places carry special syrups to put on such as coconut creme, strawberry, and other delicious syrups, but I prefer butter with rasberry or strawberry jam. Sometimes I even put peanut butter instead of butter for a more filling crepe. Once your topping is spread on top, roll up and sprinkle with a small amount of powdered sugar. I have also taken left over crepes and filled with icecream and banans. I then freeze them and top with caramel sauce and whip cream. Serve and enjoy!
Ingredients:
2 eggs
1 TBS cooking oil
1/2 tsp salt
2 cups flour
2 1/2 cups milk
1/3 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla

Directions:
In blender: blend eggs & sugar. Add oil, vanilla & salt. Alternate adding a little at a time: flour & milk until blended well.
On giddle or fry pan put a little butter or spray with pam. Pour batter on pan and lift and tilt around in circle to make a large thin pancake. Cook until slightly browned and turn and brown other side.
