🥞 Delicious Crepes Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 ½ cups milk
- 2 tbsp melted butter (plus extra for the pan)
- 1 tbsp sugar (optional, for sweet crepes)
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
1. Make the batter
In a bowl, whisk together flour and eggs. Gradually add milk while whisking to avoid lumps. Mix in melted butter, salt, and sugar/vanilla if using.
👉 Batter should be thin and smooth (almost like heavy cream).
2. Rest the batter
Let it sit for 15–30 minutes. This helps the crepes turn out tender.
3. Cook the crepes
- Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat and lightly grease it.
- Pour about ¼ cup batter into the pan, swirling quickly to coat the surface.
- Cook for 1–2 minutes until edges lift and bottom is lightly golden.
- Flip and cook another 30–60 seconds.
4. Repeat
Stack cooked crepes on a plate and cover lightly to keep warm.
Filling Ideas
Sweet:
- Nutella + bananas
- Strawberries + whipped cream
- Honey + nuts
- Jam or chocolate sauce
Savory:
- Cheese + chicken
- Eggs + spinach
- Mushrooms + cream sauce
💡 Tips
- If crepes are tearing, add a little more flour.
- If too thick, thin with milk.
- First crepe is often a “test”—don’t worry if it’s not perfect.
