30 gr of raw sugar, then let marinate during your meal.
In a mini-pan, melt one pat of butter with 1 tsp. of sugar, 1 Tbsp. of
marinade, and simmer to thicken. When it has begun to thicken, add
1/2 sliced banana and let the slices brown, turning frequently.
Variation : This recipe may also be prepared using pineapple and orange
juice.
Mix the berries, grape juice, butter and liqueur, then marinate during your
meal. In a mini-pan, melt one pat of butter with 1 tsp. of sugar, 1 tsp. of
sugar and 1 Tbsp. of marinade, then stir gently.
When the mixture begins to caramelize, add 1 – 2 Tbsp. of berries
without their juice. Stir the berries well so that they are coated with the
sugar mixture, then serve immediately.
Pour everything into your plate before coating with a bit of whipped
cream or melted chocolate.
Cooking time: 14 minutes
Cut the apples into tiny cubes and brown in the mini-pans, then add the
sugar and water. Let them caramelize slowly.

of a single cream. Add the 6 beaten eggs, 2 pinches of salt and 2 Tbsp.

Advices:
If the batter is too thick after making the crêpes, add a small amount of
water and mix again.
Salty pancakes can be made with a more salty batter.
