Hello hungry peoples,
I love Crepes Suzette but by the time I have made crepes and cooked the sauce it is mid afternoon and I have died of hunger and exhaustion. This is my quick and easy alternative, which still gives the you same orange liqueur tastiness but with much less hassle. You can also use other liqueurs to flavour these. I imagine many of the citrus varieties or even nuts such as hazelnut would also make for one tasty breakfast. Let’s get into it!
