For me, crepes ain’t worth the stress to make fresh. Just buy a little pack from store and focus on filling is my go to.

    You do you, but those are not difficult to make IMHO. I make a ton of batter and keep it in a squeeze bottle so I can easily make my kid pancakes in the morning

    For me it’s macarons and most baked goods

    I still make lasagna from scratch but that’s because I have to use gluten free pasta. All the pre made versions are awful

        Significantly? One is thick and fluffy due to a couple of extra ingredients and one is thin and light. They’re basically the same thing base ingredients, prep and cooking method wise.

          One is supposed to be as thick as possible, the other as thick and fluffy as possible. A polar opposite attribute is significant.

      Macarons are one I picked up a few years back. I’d be damned if I’m paying almost $3 for a cookie after my niece asked for some at the store. I went home, compared recipes and had a few dozen in front of her that night. They’re time consuming, but much of the time is waiting for them to set, which is perfect for my ADHD ass cause I just forget about them for 30 mins to a couple hours. It’s a skill that has definitely paid off, and I love giving them to everyone who has never tried one because of the price.
