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!

those crepes are perfect and I love the Mascarpone cream!
I use Pam for lots of holiday baking, but my favorite use is for coating measuring cups and spoons when I’m measuring out something sticky (like peanut butter) for a recipe.
I plan on using Pam for baking my holiday cookies!
I use Pam on a lot of things like when I make eggs, muffins, pancakes etc.
Looks delish! Definitely using Pam for this and brownies for my hubby, and pretty much everything else since there’s always a can sitting next to my stove
These look SO yummy. I am going to have to try them.
I use Pam on everything–we use it every morning on our skillet when we make eggs. Thanks!
I would use it to make apple pie
I have three favorite Christmas quick breads that I make every year and I wouldn’t use anything else but Pam on my pans.
These sound amazing! I have yet to make crepes and I need to change that!
We are big users of Pam around here 🙂
Really both your crepes and your coffee mascarpone cream have me swooning. How perfect is this? I adore using mascarpone for creams and fillings and frostings and coffee is a favorite flavor. The crepes are perfect! And I adore the story of your mom 🙂
I grew up in a family that used PAM all the time but it just does not exist in France. But I ADORE all of my Le Creuset ware – the pots, pans, skillet and the casserole dishes. I dream of owning their pie plate!
