What is your favorite crêpe filling?

Clătite ?

They're best with quince jam + peanutbutter. Or prune jam and peanutbutter. Or rose petal jam withtout peanutbutter. Or strawberry jam.
But if you're not in the mood for jam then you can't go wrong with nutella.

If you're poor then they are good with honey, or with powdered sugar, or with halwa.
 
Strawberry
First Runner up is a close tie between Apple and Nutella.
 
I'm pleasantly surprised that crêpes are known outside the French borders.

It's easy to make, it's cheap, it's tasty and can be filled up with anything. To sum up, the perfect mainstream food anyone could love in the world.

Unfortunately, it's French. And French people don't know how to export their popular culture. I never understood why a French restaurant outside France necessarily had to be posh.

Well, you can get crêpes at non-posh places around here, but they're known as a Quebec thing, not a France thing.
 
barbaric brute :p

anyway, I prefer them with as little as possible: just sugar and cinnamon :)

Indeed. And the British call their former colonies uncivilized. :rolleyes: Pancakes are amazing as well, but they certainly aren't the same thing.

I'm not sure I do have a favorite crêpe filling. Chocolate and bananas go quite well in a crêpe, but so does lemon, sugar, and jam, which is the way I usually make them. I've yet to go for the savory variety, as the sweet are so good and I suppose I'm young enough that I can get away with it for now.
 
squeeeeeeeezed lemon juice and suger
My grandma's favourite! I prefer [wiki]dulce de leche[/wiki], an acquired taste from around these here parts.
 
Here's a new idea: chopped spinach and ricotta. (It's not my favorite as I like too many to decide.) Borrowed from an enchilada recipe.
