Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract (optional, for sweet crepes)
- 1 as needed Cooking spray or additional butter (for greasing the pan)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, eggs, melted butter, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract (if using) until the batter is smooth and lump-free. You can also use a blender for this step.
Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the flour to fully absorb the liquid. This helps create tender crepes.
Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with cooking spray or butter.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan and quickly tilt the pan in a circular motion to evenly coat the bottom with a thin layer of batter.
Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges of the crepe start to lift and the bottom is lightly golden. Flip the crepe using a spatula and cook the other side for about 30 seconds.
Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the crepes as you go.
Serve warm with your choice of toppings, such as fresh fruit, whipped cream, Nutella, jam, or even savory fillings like cheese and ham.
