They are easy to prepare and they make for a fancy breakfast or brunch. To me they are like breakfast burritos made elegant or something (not that ham and eggs are elegant it’s just that I think crepes are delicate and elegant).
The Best Savory Crepe Recipe!
At the cafe I believe they added melted butter over the crepes and I thought to myself, well if you are going to add melted butter you may as well brown it. My siblings make fun of me and say I’m obsessed with browned butter and salty caramel. A lot of my family doesn’t like salted caramel, can you believe it? I know, it’s sinful. One of these days I’m going to get them hooked though. Its incredible what just a few flakes of salt or a small drizzle of browned butter can do. Two of the best flavor enhancers. I listed the brown butter as optional in the recipe but really you’d be crazy to leave it out :). With these you can also add in red peppers, mushrooms, sauteed onions, red pepper flakes – whatever you like in your scrambled eggs basically. You can also use a different type of cheese, I just went with the same they used at the cafe. I’m telling you, these definitely should be added to your weekend breakfast menu. They are so good! Enjoy!
How to Make Savory Crepes

Brown butter then cook eggs in butter, toss with cheese. Assemble crepes layering ham, cheesy eggs and finishing with browned butter and wrap.
