Classic Crepe Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 large eggs
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1/2 cup water
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons melted butter

Preparation

1. Prepare the Batter:

• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and eggs.
• Gradually add the milk and water, stirring continuously until well combined.
• Incorporate the salt and melted butter, beating until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.

2. Heat the Pan:

• Lightly oil a griddle or frying pan and heat it over medium-high heat.
• Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each crepe.
• Tilt the pan in a circular motion to evenly coat the surface with the batter.

3. Cook the Crepes:

• Cook the crepe for about 2 minutes, or until the bottom is lightly browned.
• Use a spatula to loosen the edges, then flip and cook the other side until golden brown.

4. Serve:

• Serve the crepes hot, garnished with a sprinkle of powdered sugar and fresh berries such as strawberries, blueberries, and blackberries.
• For additional flavor, add whipped cream, Nutella, or your favorite toppings.

Tips:

• Ensure the batter is smooth and lump-free. Using a blender can help achieve this consistency.
• The pan should be hot enough to cook the crepe quickly without burning it.
• Don’t be discouraged if the first crepe isn’t perfect; it’s common for the first one to be a test. Adjust the heat as necessary and continue.
