Peel and cut the russet potatoes into small chunks.
Boil the potatoes in a pot of water until they are fully cooked and tender, about 15 minutes.
Drain the potatoes and mash them thoroughly using a potato masher or fork until smooth.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, gluten-free flour, and salt. Mix well to combine.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together until fully combined.
Pour the egg mixture into the potato-flour mixture, stirring to create a smooth batter.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Pour approximately 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet and quickly spread it out into a thin, even layer using the back of a spoon or a crepe spreader.
Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the edges start to firm up and golden brown spots appear on the bottom.
Carefully flip the crepe using a spatula and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side.
Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate and repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
Serve the crepes warm with your choice of savory or sweet filling.
