How to Make Crepes

Make this delicious crepe just like the ones we serve in our restaurtant.
Prep Time1 hour 20 minutes
Cook Time10 minutes
Total Time1 hour 30 minutes

Ingredients

  • Eggs- 2 large
  • Salt ¼ tsp
  • Flour- 1 cup AP, preferred
  • Whole milk- 1 ¼ cups. Whole milk is recommended because of it’s consistency. I have used skim before.
  • Vanilla extract or fresh lemon juice depending on the taste that you are looking for- 1 tsp
  • Melted butter- about 3 tablespoons divided

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl- combine together the eggs, salt, flour, milk, and vanilla/lemon juice.
  • Stir in 2 tablespoons of the melted butter into the bowl.
  • Refrigerate for an hour to lessen the bubbles- this is optional- see above.
  • You will be making one crepe at a time so it is recommended to use a small-to medium sized round skillet.
  • Preheat the skillet on medium-high heat.
  • Once heated, add the remaining butter to the skillet.
  • When the butter bubbles, add about ¼ cup of batter and swirl the batter around in the skillet until the skillet is covered. This should be a thin layer of batter.
  • As the crepe cooks, work the edges to loosen them.
  • When the crepe begins to brown- about 45 seconds, gently flip it over and cook the other side for about another 30 seconds until browning.
  • While the crepes are still warm, it is recommended that you do not stack them as they may stick together.
