Ingredients 

Crepe Batter

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup milk
  • ½ cup water
  • 2 tablespoon butter, melted
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Suzette Sauce

  • ¼ cup unsalted butter
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 large orange, juiced and zested
  • ¼ cup Grand Marnier or other orange liqueur

Instructions 

  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour and eggs. Gradually add in milk and water, stirring to combine. Add the salt and butter; beat until smooth.
  2. Heat a lightly oiled skillet over medium-high heat. Pour the batter onto the skillet, using approximately ¼ cup for each crepe. Tilt the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly.
  3. Cook the crepe for about 2 minutes, until the bottom is light brown. Loosen with a spatula, turn and cook the other side. Serve hot.
  4. In a skillet, melt the butter and sugar over medium heat. Add the orange juice and zest, and cook until the mixture is slightly thickened.
  5. Add the Grand Marnier and carefully ignite with a long match. Let the flames subside. Add the crepes to the skillet and coat with the sauce. Serve immediately.
