Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 2 eggs
- 1.25 cups milk
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 as needed non-stick cooking spray or additional butter
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking constantly to create a smooth, lump-free batter. Alternatively, blend the ingredients in a blender for 15-20 seconds. Let the batter rest for 15 minutes to allow the flour to hydrate.
Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with non-stick cooking spray or a small amount of butter.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan, tilting and swirling it to evenly coat the bottom with a thin layer. Pour back any excess batter into the bowl if needed.
Cook the crepe for about 1-2 minutes, or until the edges begin to lift and the bottom is set. Carefully flip the crepe using a spatula and cook for another 30-60 seconds until the second side is lightly browned.
Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as needed between crepes.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings such as fresh berries, whipped cream, chocolate sauce, or powdered sugar.
