How to Make Easy Crepes

INGREDIENTS –

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 ½ cups water
• 3 eggs
• dash of salt
• Oil
• Toppings – powdered sugar, sliced strawberries, whipped cream, Nutella, etc.

DIRECTIONS –

1. Prepare the Batter:

• In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, water, eggs, and salt until smooth. Allow the batter to rest for 10 minutes to let the bubbles settle.

2. Heat the Pan:

• Pour a drizzle of oil into a paper towel, then rub the paper towel along the inside of an 8-inch nonstick skillet. Heat the skillet on medium heat for several minutes.

3. Cook the Crepes:

• Once the pan is hot, pour 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet, swirling the batter around to cover the surface thinly and evenly across the bottom.
• Cook until set, about 20 -30 seconds until the edges start to lift and the bottom turns a light golden color. Use a spatula to carefully flip the crepe and cook the other side for an additional 10-20 seconds. Remove from pan and serve warm.

5. Serve and Enjoy:

• Fill or top your crepes with your favorite ingredients! Sweet options include Nutella, fruits, whipped cream, or jams. For savory choices, try cheese, ham, spinach, or mushrooms.

Enjoy making and indulging in these delightful homemade crepes. Bon appétit!
