I don't make thick pancakes... I use a pancake recipe, however, I make them thin enough to call them crepes. Since baking is not my forte... I'm proud to say that my so called crepes are always a hit. My Ottawa friend gave me a head start with making thin pancakes...creating my version of this fruit & cheese crepe recipe. ENJOY!
