I found this low-fat recipe in a magazine and made it even quicker and lighter. The crepe batter whips up so easily in the blender. —Leica Merriam, Providence, Utah

    This was fantastic - I loved the taste of the almond extract in the crepes, combined with the jam and berries. Will definitely make it again.
