Ingredients
- 250 g all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs milk
- 500 ml milk
- 50 g unsalted butter melted
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp sugar (optional)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- butter or oil for cooking
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. If you want sweet crêpes, add the sugar to the dry ingredients. You can also add vanilla extract for flavor.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs and then add them to the dry ingredients. Mix until you have a thick paste.
- Gradually pour in the milk while continuously whisking. Make sure to whisk well to avoid lumps.
- Add the melted butter to the batter and mix until it's well combined.
- Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes. This allows the flour to fully absorb the liquid and will result in smoother crêpes.
- Heat a non-stick frying pan or crêpe pan over medium heat. You can lightly grease the pan with a small amount of butter or oil if it's not truly non-stick.
- Pour a ladleful (about 1/4 cup or 60 ml) of the batter into the center of the hot pan.
- Immediately lift the pan off the heat and tilt it in a circular motion to spread the batter evenly across the bottom of the pan.
- Cook for about 1-2 minutes or until the edges start to lift and the crêpe turns golden brown on the bottom.
- Carefully flip the crêpe using a spatula and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes, or until it's also golden brown.
- Remove the crêpe from the pan and place it on a plate.
- Continue the process with the remaining batter, stacking the crêpes on top of each other.
- Serve your crêpes with your favorite toppings such as Nutella, jam, fresh berries, whipped cream, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.This recipe should yield about 10-12 crêpes, depending on the size of your pan and how thin you make them. Adjust the filling and toppings according to your preference. Bon appétit!
