Easy to make Crepes take less than 5 minutes to throw together and less than 15 minutes to have on your table!

📝 Ingredients

  • 5 ounces all purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar (heaped)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 large egg
  • 4 tablespoons melted butter (or oil)
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon softened butter

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1--- FOR CREPES ---
  2. 2Whisk together flour, salt and sugar in a large bowl.
  3. 3Make a well in the centre and pour in milk, eggs and slightly cooled melted butter. Whisk wet ingredients first before folding into the dry ingredients.
  4. 4Whisk until batter is smooth. Batter should be runny/watery. Add in 1-2 tablespoons extra milk, if needed.
  5. 5--- BLENDER METHOD ---
  6. 6Add all the ingredients into a blender. Blend until batter is smooth, about 10 seconds.
  7. 7--- REST ---
  8. 8Let batter rest while preheating a 10-inch nonstick pan over medium heat. Alternatively, cover batter and refrigerate overnight.
  9. 9--- COOK CREPES ---
  10. 10Lightly grease pan with a layer of butter with a butter soaked paper towel or silicone brush.
  11. 11Give the batter a light mix to move settled ingredients around before pouring out each crepe.
  12. 12Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the centre of your hot pan. Swirl around in a circular motion to evenly coat the bottom of the pan, spreading the batter around the edges. Fill in any gaps with a little extra crepe batter if needed.
  13. 13Place pan back on the heat.
  14. 14--- FOR SOFT CREPES ---
  15. 15Let crepe cook until the surface has set and the underside is slightly golden, about 1 minute.
  16. 16Gently flip crepe and cook until set, about 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  17. 17Repeat until all the batter is used up, mixing batter before pouring out each crepe.
  18. 18--- FOR CRISP EDGES ---
  19. 19Cook crepes until the edges are starting to brown and crisp slightly, about 1 1/2 - 2 minutes. Flip and cook for a further 30 seconds until the crepes develop browned spots.
  20. 20Repeat until all the batter is used up, mixing batter before pouring out each crepe.
  21. 21Stack cooked crepes on a plate.
  22. 22Serve warm.
