Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients
In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, and salt. - Combine Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, whisk eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth. - Make the Batter
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry, whisking until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. Let it rest for 15–30 minutes. - Cook the Crepes
Heat a nonstick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly brush with butter. Pour a small amount of batter into the pan, tilting to spread evenly into a thin layer. Cook for 1–2 minutes until the edges lift and the bottom is lightly golden. Flip and cook another 30–60 seconds. - Serve
Stack the crepes on a plate, covering them with a clean towel to keep warm. Serve with fresh fruit, chocolate sauce, whipped cream, or a drizzle of maple syrup.
Tips for Perfect Crepes
- Use a nonstick pan and keep it lightly buttered for easy flipping.
- Let the batter rest—this helps the flour fully hydrate and reduces tearing.
- Pour a small amount of batter—thin crepes cook faster and are easier to flip.
