Crêpes

Have you ever wondered how to make perfect French crêpes?  You’ll learn how to make both sweet & savory varieties here!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 eggs, yolks separated
  • 3/4 cup milk (plus extra as needed)
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 Tbsp sugar
  • 1 stick melted butter, melted and divided into 5 Tbsp (a little over 1/4 cup) and 3 Tbsp (for oiling pan)
  • 1 cup flour

Instructions

  1. Begin by preparing your work surface.  You’ll need space for prepping, and will need to make room for a blender or large bowl, depending on how you’re mixing your batter.
  2. Next, combine eggs yolks, milk, salt, sugar, and 5 Tbsp melted butter.  Blend or whisk until incorporated.
  3. Add flour next, and combine until smooth.  Some lumps will still remain.*
  4. Finally, heat your pan over medium heat, and brush with a bit of melted butter.
  5. Pour in your batter and swirl your pan carefully so that the entire bottom is covered in the mix.
  6. Wait for a minute or two until you see air bubbles, then carefully flip to cook the other side.

*Making the batter a day in advance is a great idea!  This gives the ingredients time to “marry” and will allow the flour to get properly absorbed.

Notes

Remember to add your favorite fillings for Sweet & Savory options:

Nutella, Bananas, Strawberries, Whipped Cream, etc.

Swiss Cheese, Mushrooms, Ham, etc.
