crepes

Instructions:

  1. Make the batter:
    • In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and melted butter.
    • Gradually add the flour, sugar (if using), salt, and vanilla, whisking until smooth.
    • Let the batter rest for 15–30 minutes if possible; it helps make crepes more tender.
  2. Cook the crepes:
    • Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly butter it.
    • Pour about ¼ cup of batter into the pan and swirl to coat evenly.
    • Cook 1–2 minutes until the edges start to lift and the bottom is lightly golden.
    • Flip carefully and cook another 30–60 seconds.
  3. Serve:
    • Stack crepes on a plate, keeping them warm under a towel.
    • Fill with sweet options like Nutella, fruit, or whipped cream—or savory options like ham, cheese, or sautéed vegetables.

💡 Tips:

  • For very thin crepes, swirl the batter quickly in the pan right after pouring.
  • Crepes can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge for 1–2 days; just reheat gently in a pan.
  • You can make the batter a day in advance—it often improves the texture!

If you want, I can also give a super quick 5-minute microwave version that makes soft, mini crepes when you’re in a hurry.
