Description:
Growing up in Denmark, my mother always had a cup of hot cocoa ready for my sister and me when we came home from school. Rain or shine, snow or sleet, we’d pedal our bikes to and from school, often chilled to the bone. So, returning to a warm treat of delicate pancakes adorned with fresh fruit, accompanied by steaming hot cocoa, was a cherished ritual that thawed our frozen bodies and lifted our spirits.

Sift Dry Ingredients:
Start by sifting all the dry ingredients together – flour, salt, baking powder, and icing sugar. Create a well in the center of the mixture. -
Prepare Liquid Mixture:
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs thoroughly. Then, add the remaining liquid ingredients – milk, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. -
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
Pour the beaten liquid mixture into the well created in the flour mixture. Gently incorporate the wet ingredients into the dry ones. It’s essential not to overmix; a few small lumps are okay and add to the texture. -
Heat the Griddle:
Wipe a hot griddle or non-stick skillet lightly with oil. Ensure the surface is evenly coated and ready for cooking. -
Cook the Crepes:
Spoon the batter onto the hot griddle, allowing it to spread out thinly. Cook until the bottom is golden brown, then carefully flip the crepe to cook the other side. -
Assemble and Serve:
Once both sides are lightly browned, transfer the crepe to a plate. Fill it with an assortment of fresh fruits, then gently roll it into a tube. Before serving, sprinkle with fresh lemon juice and dust with sieved icing sugar for a delightful finishing touch.
