Lemon and poppy seeds crepes

You probably know the lemon cake with poppy seeds, don’t you? I invite you to discover this winning combination in the “crepes” format!

As far as the zest is concerned, I recommend using organically grown lemons to avoid pesticides, an undesirable ingredient in this recipe.

One last remark about the resting time, which is important to obtain a really soft pancake. In fact, resting allows the starch in the flour to swell to create the desired smooth texture. However, there are two tricks to shorten the resting time: You can use warm milk and prepare your dough in a blender (bonus of the blender: a lump-free dough).
