Description

Classic French crepes recipe, quick and restless for soft and flavorful crepes at home (about 10 crepes)


Ingredients

  • 250 g (2 cups) Flour - all-purpose
  • 1 tbsp Sugar - granulated 
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 4 eggs - room temperature
  • 500 ml (2 cups) milk - or plant-based milk
  • 50 g (1/4 cup) Butter - unsalted and melted

Instructions

  1. Pour the flour, salt and sugar into a large container and make a well in the center.
  2. Place the eggs in it and using a whisk, start by mixing the center only, then while gradually pouring in the milk continue to mix the batter until you get a smooth, homogeneous crepes batter.
  3. Then add the melted butter and continue to mix again.
  4. The dough should have the consistency of a liquid cream, if it seems too thick, add small quantities of milk and if on the contrary it seems too liquid, add a little flour.
  5. If your dough is grainy, you can use a blender to smooth it out.
  6. Heat a crepes pan over medium heat, grease your pan with a little butter.
  7. Place a small ladle of batter in the hot pan.
  8. Cook the crepes for about 1-2 minutes on each side, until they peel off and start to have a nice golden color.
