Serving Size  : 6    
Amount  Measure       Ingredient — Preparation Method
——–        ————  ——————————–
  1                 cup              water
  1                 cup              milk
  3                                      eggs
     1/2         cup              buckwheat flour
     2/3         cup             white flour
     1/2         teaspoon  salt
  3                 tbsp.          melted butter

Serve them with melted butter and cinnamon sugar.

TO MAKE BATTER IN A BLENDER, put all ingredients into a blender jar in order given, and blend briefly at medium speed. Stop and scrape down the sides of the blender jar; then blend for another 5 seconds or so. Pour out the batter into a bowl, cover and let rest for 1 hour before using.

TO MAKE BATTER BY HAND, beat the eggs slightly, add milk, water, salt and melted butter, then gradually whisk in flours. Pour the batter through a strainer and let sit for 1/2 hour before using. To cook crepes, melt a little butter in a crepe pan and cook. As buckwheat has an enormous capacity to absorb liquid, you might find it necessary to thin the batter with more milk or water.
