Easy Crepes Recipe
It’s made with common household ingredients:
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs
½ cup milk
½ cup water
2 tablespoons butter, melted
¼ teaspoon salt
Directions:
Step 1: Whisk together the flour and eggs in a large mixing bowl. Stir in the milk and water gradually to combine. Beat in the salt and butter until smooth.
Step 2: Over medium-high heat, heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan. Pour or spoon the batter onto the griddle, about 1/4 cup for each crepe. Tilt the pan in a circular motion to evenly coat the surface with batter.
Step 3: Cook for 2 minutes, or until the bottom is light brown. Turn and cook the other side after loosening with a spatula. Serve immediately.
Here are some secret tips that will help you make the perfect crepe:
To make crepes that are smoother, let the batter sit for 15 minutes.
You can change the thickness of the pancakes by adding more flour or more milk.
Adding sugar or vanilla flavor to the batter can give it a hint of sweetness.
