🧾 Ingredients
For the Basic Crêpe Batter:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/4 cups milk
- 2 tbsp melted butter (plus more for the pan)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- Optional: 1 tsp sugar and 1 tsp vanilla extract for sweet crêpes
🥄 Instructions
- Make the batter:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and eggs. Gradually add the milk, whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Stir in the melted butter and salt (plus sugar and vanilla if making sweet crêpes). The batter should be smooth and thin — similar to heavy cream. Let it rest for 15–30 minutes (or up to overnight in the fridge). - Heat the pan:
Heat a non-stick skillet or crêpe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil. - Cook the crêpes:
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the pan, tilting and swirling to spread it evenly into a thin layer. Cook for about 1–2 minutes until the edges begin to lift and the bottom is lightly golden. Flip carefully and cook for another 30 seconds.
