French Pancakes

I was looking through an old Royal Baking Powder recipe book that although I couldn't find a date is probably from the early 1900's. As someone who makes pancakes frequently I was intrigued by the title of French Pancakes. Upon reading, it is what we today call crepes.

1 cup flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
2 eggs
1 Tbsp. sugar
2 cups milk
1/2 cup cream
jam
powdered sugar

Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Add eggs which have been beated with the sugar, milk, and cream. Beat until smooth. Heat small frying pan in which a little butter has been melted. Pour in just sufficient batter to cover bottom of pan. Cook over hot fire. Turn and brown other side. Spread with jam and roll up. Sprinkle with posdered sugar and serve hot.
