Crepe, with its old name pouring or sizzling, is one of the most practical and economical breakfast dishes that you can season with sweet or salty ingredients. We said it would fit the old fashioned way, we made it with yogurt instead of milk, bon appetit!
In a deep bowl, first combine the liquids, namely yoghurt, water, oil and eggs, and whisk well. Sift flour, baking powder, salt and sugar and add to the mixture and mix until you get a smooth and thin boza consistency.
Take the non-stick pancake pan, heat it slightly and put it on low heat. If desired, grease the pan with a small piece of butter. Since there is oil in the mixture, you can continue without adding any oil.
Take a ladle of the mixture and spread it over the surface, starting from the edge of the pan. Gently shake the pan to ensure that the mixture is spread evenly and evenly over the surface of the pan.
Wait until your crepe is eye-catching, turn it when the bottom surface is lightly browned. Cook your crepes one by one, front to back.
After each crepe, if you prefer, you can oil your pan little by little. Thus, you both add flavor and prevent them from sticking.
You can serve your cooked crepes hot or warm by adding any sweet (honey, jam, etc.) or salty (cheese, olive paste, etc.) material between them in layers or in a single roll. Enjoy your meal!
Note: You can make oven dishes by adding spinach, chicken saute, etc. into the pancakes you will make with this recipe.

Flour:
Flour is a fundamental foodstuff obtained by grinding grains. It provides our body with a long-lasting energy source, especially through complex carbohydrates. Varieties like whole wheat flour, thanks to their high fiber content, support digestive health, provide a feeling of fullness, and help stabilize blood sugar levels. It also contains essential B vitamins (especially B1, B3, B9) and important minerals such as iron and magnesium, which are crucial for nervous system functions, energy production, and blood formation. It is versatile in the kitchen; forming the base for baked goods like bread and pastries when combined with milk, eggs, and yeast, while also being used to thicken sauces or create harmonious flavors with vegetables.
Egg:
Eggs are a highly bioavailable protein source, essential for muscle growth and repair. Rich in B12, Vitamin D, selenium, and choline, they support brain function, nervous system health, and energy production. Lutein and zeaxanthin pigments aid eye health, reducing the risk of age-related macular degeneration. Despite their cholesterol content, eggs typically don't adversely affect blood cholesterol in most healthy individuals. A breakfast staple, eggs pair wonderfully with various ingredients like cheese, spinach, mushrooms, avocado, and whole-wheat bread.
Yogurt:
Yogurt, a fermented milk product, supports the digestive system and helps balance gut flora due to its rich probiotic content. This contributes to strengthening the immune system. It is also a high-quality source of protein and calcium, important for bone health and muscle development. With its slightly sour taste, it pairs perfectly with fruits, granola, or honey for breakfast. In main dishes, it adds flavor as the main component of cacık or various mezzes.
Water:
Water is the foundation of life and indispensable for bodily functions. Its main roles include transporting nutrients and oxygen to cells, eliminating metabolic waste through the kidneys, and regulating body temperature. It is essential for joint health, organ protection, and maintaining cellular functions. Dehydration leads to low energy and kidney issues. When consumed with fibrous fruits and vegetables, water aids digestion. It forms a good combination with mineral water or herbal teas for electrolyte balance.
Liquid Oil:
Liquid oils (sunflower, olive, etc.) are essential kitchen ingredients that add flavor to dishes and contain healthy unsaturated fatty acids and vitamin E. Ideal for frying, salad dressings, baking, and sautéing. They pair perfectly with vegetables, meats, legumes, and grains. They offer easy cooking.
Baking Powder:
Baking powder is a leavening agent typically composed of sodium bicarbonate and an acid, giving baked goods their rise. While it offers no direct nutritional benefits, its sodium bicarbonate content can provide temporary relief from heartburn and indigestion, and even support oral hygiene as a gargle. However, excessive consumption leads to high sodium intake. It pairs wonderfully with flour, sugar, dairy products, eggs, and fruits; it's indispensable in cakes, cookies, and bread.
Granulated Sugar:
Granulated sugar is one of the body's primary energy sources. It provides rapid glucose for the brain and muscles, meeting immediate energy demands. It can quickly help stabilize energy levels after intense physical activity or when feeling fatigued. Additionally, it may contribute to short-term serotonin release, which can improve mood. It is commonly used as a flavor balancer in numerous recipes, including coffee, tea, desserts, and fruit salads.
Butter:
Butter is a rich, flavorful fat derived from milk. It contains fat-soluble vitamins like A, D, E, and K2, along with healthy fatty acids, serving as an energy source. It's easily digestible. Butter enhances the taste of meals and rice dishes, is spread on bread, or used in sauces. It's indispensable for breakfast tables and various recipes.
