Easy Crepe Recipe
Crepes are one of my favorite weekend breakfasts. I think its because I can load it with fruit with less of the "batter" than a traditional pancake and the texture of a good crepe is just perfect.
One of the secrets of a good crepe batter is to let the batter rest. This will make sure you have perfectly tender crepes every time.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/2 tablespoon sugar
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cups milk
- 1 egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil for cooking
Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, and salt together
- In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, egg and vanilla until smooth
- Whisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until smooth
- Whisk in the melted butter and then let the batter rest for 30 minutes
- Heat a large non-stick skillet and brush with oil
- Add about 4 tablespoons of batter to the pan and swirl the batter to the edge of the pan in a circular motion to make a very thin layer
- Cook until the crepe starts to release from the bottom of the pan, about 2 - 3 minutes and then flip over
- Cook the other side until it just starts to brown and serve with your favourite toppings
