Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1.25 cup Milk
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon Butter (for greasing the pan)
- 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar (optional, for serving)
- as desired Fresh fruits (optional, for serving)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, and salt. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter until smooth and combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking constantly to form a smooth, thin batter. Ensure there are no lumps.
Let the batter rest for 5 minutes while preheating a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat.
Lightly grease the pan with a small amount of butter using a paper towel or brush.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the center of the pan, tilting the pan in a circular motion to spread the batter thinly and evenly.
Allow the pancake to cook for about 1-2 minutes until the edges become crispy and lace-like, and the bottom turns golden brown.
Flip the pancake carefully with a thin spatula and cook for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute on the other side.
Transfer the finished creeping pancake to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan lightly as needed.
Serve warm with powdered sugar dusted on top, fresh fruits, or other toppings of your choice. Enjoy the delicate and crispy texture of the creeping pancakes!
