Ingredients
Crêpe Batter
- 4 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 ⅓ cups milk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons white sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Gather Ingredients: Collect all necessary ingredients to ensure proper preparation before starting.
- Prepare Batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, all-purpose flour, melted butter, sugar, and salt until the batter is smooth and free of lumps, forming a thin, pourable consistency.
- Heat Pan: Place a medium skillet or crêpe pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil applied with a brush or paper towel to prevent sticking.
- Cook Crêpes: Using a serving spoon or small ladle, pour about 3 tablespoons of batter onto the hot pan. Tilt and swirl the pan to spread the batter evenly, creating a thin layer.
- Flip and Finish: Cook each crêpe until the bottom is golden brown, about 1 to 2 minutes. Carefully flip the crêpe and cook the other side for an additional 1 to 2 minutes until golden and cooked through.
- Serve Warm: Stack the warm crêpes on a plate and serve immediately with your choice of sugar and lemon, whipped cream, ice cream, or fresh fruit.
Notes
- Use a non-stick skillet or crêpe pan for best results and easy flipping.
- Keep cooked crêpes warm by stacking them and covering with foil or a clean kitchen towel.
- Adjust batter consistency with a little more milk if too thick or more flour if too thin.
- Crêpes can be made ahead and refrigerated wrapped in plastic wrap. Reheat gently before serving.
