Irish Crème Crepes with Cinnamon Vanilla Bean Whipped Cream

I come from a long line of Irish descendants. To be honest, I have always been proud of that. It is my favorite bloodline (don’t tell the Germans). I love to celebrate St. Patty’s Day, and maybe it is only because I have great childhood memories of going to the St. Patty’s Day parade; they always had the best candy!

However, my favorite treasure was from a local bagel shop, Gibb’s Bagels. They always put out green bagels. I loved them! My sisters and I thought it was so cool. I’m not sure if we even ate the bagels, but we loved them anyway.

I want to carry on some similar memories for my kids. I want them to remember something green that they ate on St. Patty’s Day, and I actually want them to eat it, not just think it’s cool. My kids’ favorite all-time breakfast is crepes, so I thought this year it would be cool to make Irish Crème Crepes with a little green food coloring to start a tradition they will always remember. I made a little cinnamon vanilla bean whipped cream to garnish.

How do you make Irish Crème Crepes?

  • In large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, melted butter, flour, sugar, and salt until smooth.
  • Heat a medium-sized skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Grease pan with a small amount of butter or oil applied with a brush or paper towel. Using a serving spoon or small ladle, spoon about 3 tablespoons crepe batter into a hot pan, tilting the pan so that bottom surface is evenly coated. Cook over medium heat, 1 to 2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.

  • Top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon and serve immediately!

Kids review: I was worried that since this had Irish Crème in it they would turn their noses at it. Especially since I had them smell the syrup and they all gagged. LOL! But they loved them, I tripled the batch and not one was left (well there were actually 2, but I intentionally stuck them aside for my husband).
