Easy Crepe Recipe
This easy crepe recipe comes from my mom's kitchen. I grew up enjoying these light and fluffy crepes, and making them now for my family brings back those fond memories. Their blend-and-pour method makes them perfect for any filling, be it sweet or savory.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup lukewarm water
- 1 cup milk
- 5 large eggs
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted, plus more to coat the pan
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a blender. Blend until perfectly smooth, about 15 to 20 seconds.
- Prepare a non-stick pan by lightly greasing it with butter, then place it over medium heat.
- Pour a 1/4 cup of batter into the center of the warm skillet and quickly lift and swirl the pan to spread the batter evenly.
- Allow the crepe to cook for roughly 30 seconds, watching for bubbles around the edges and a shift from glossy to matte.
- Carefully flip the crepe with a spatula and cook the opposite side for about 30 seconds until lightly golden.
- Once cooked, transfer the crepe to a plate and layer parchment paper in between to keep them from sticking.
- Fill your crepes with your favorite sweet or savory ingredients. I love a filling of ham, cheese, and arugula, or for something sweet, Nutella with fresh berries.
