In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, eggs, melted butter, and salt until smooth and free of lumps. Set the crepe batter aside to rest for 15 minutes.
Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with a small amount of butter or olive oil.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the pan, tilting it in a circular motion to spread the batter thinly and evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges start to lift and the bottom is golden. Flip the crepe using a spatula and cook for an additional 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the crepes with parchment paper between them.
In another skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and sauté for 5-6 minutes until they release their moisture and start to brown.
Add the minced garlic to the mushrooms and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Toss in the chopped spinach and cook for 2-3 minutes until wilted. Season the mixture with salt and black pepper. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with half of the shredded mozzarella cheese. Stir in the mushroom and spinach mixture until evenly combined.
Take one crepe and spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the filling down the center. Fold the sides of the crepe over the filling to create a rolled or folded shape. Place the filled crepe seam-side down on a plate. Repeat with the remaining crepes and filling.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Arrange the filled crepes in a greased baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining shredded mozzarella over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve warm and enjoy!
