Grandma Greta’s Hungarian Palacsintas (Betsy and Paul)

Ingredients
For 12:
1 cup flour
1 ½ cups milk
2 Tbs sugar
3 eggs
¼ tsp salt

For 8:
2/3 c. flour
1 cup milk
1 1/2 Tbs sugar
2 eggs
Pinch of salt

Directions
Blend ingredients. Cook in a crepe pan. No need to flip. Our family would spread margarine on the crepe. Then add lemon juice or jam. Roll and sprinkle with powdered sugar or chocolate sauce and chopped nuts.

This Hungarian crepe recipe also comes from Grandma Greta. Grandma would visit for a month when she came to the States. Most of my memories are of her in the kitchen. I’d catch her sneaking licks from the batter bowls and snitching bites from leftovers for which she seemed ashamed. It’s a custom I find myself passing on to my children. Russian Tea cookies, Palacsintas, and cake were traditional. I only have her recipe for Palacsintas.
