Guys! I put up the Christmas Tree! EEEEK! It’s right behind me, all shiny and bright!
I’m also listening to Christmas Carols!! I’m SO excited! Dashing through the snow in a one horse open sleigh… Oh, I feel complete!
Speaking of things that make me feel complete… let’s talk Crepes! I love ’em! My love for crepes is so deep, they have become one of my go-to comfort foods.
I called my mom the other day to ask her a question or two. I wanted to get the inside scoop on her crepes-recipe because she’s sort of a pro. Hands down, she makes a mean crepe! As we were talking and discussing her recipe, she says, “…and don’t forget the “pehm”…”. Now, before I continue, you need to know that my Mom has a really, really deep Macedonian accent. She rolls her R’s, and her “the” sounds like “duh”. She says things like, “honestly Gah” instead of “honest to God”, and “Arthur Itis” instead of arthritis.
So, naturally, I asked her to repeat herself and, again, she said, “don’t forget the PEHM!”. What is pehm, Mom? She shouts back, “the tall, yellow tube…PEHM!” Do you mean PAM?!? “Yes, Katerina! Pehm!!!” lol 😂
Now that we got that all sorted out, I do agree with her that if you want that perfect crepe, the one that won’t stick to anything BUT your lips, PAM is your girl. If you want your crepes to turn out right the first time, especially during the holiday season, PAM Cooking Spray is where it’s at. According to my mom, “Pehm” is all you need.

A couple of years ago I was going to serve baked cinnamon doughnuts for our Christmas breakfast, but the unthinkable happened. My doughnuts stuck to my NON-STICK doughnut pan. I was furious. I mean, you can imagine, right? It’s Christmas morning and my promised doughnuts turned into crumbs! For my second attempt I used PAM cooking spray and the doughnuts popped right out. Such a relief.
PAM has seven non-stick cooking sprays to help you succeed every time you cook or bake. With PAM on your side, this holiday season can be one filled with celebration, delicious food and success in the kitchen…the first time around!

I have never made crepes,but with this recipe and using Pam cooking spray, I just might be able to do it! I will also use Pam when making Mom’s Belgian waffles.
On pies,casseroles and bread lots of delicious recipes
i use Pam daily to make scrambled eggs. I also use it when making baked goods.
I will use it to make egg pancakes- they are like crepes but you put butter, sugar, and bacon and eat them for breakfast.
I use Pam every morning when I give a quick shot of it to my pan to cook my easy over eggs. Pam ensures the easy over part. In my holiday baking I use Pam for a quick spray to cookie sheets for my numerous batches of cookies. Also great for spraying measuring spoons and cups when measuring honey or molasses.
OH MY GOODNESS! I have recently become obsessed with mascarpone cheese (I bought it by accident to sub in a recipe that called from creme fraiche). I really want to make these crepes for breakfast tomorrow! Thanks for the recipe!
I use it in everything-esp. cooking meat!
