03 Method

Step 1

Gather the ingredients.
Step 2

Combine all the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth, about 20 seconds. The batter should be fairly thin and pourable, but still creamy. If it is a little too thick, add tiny amounts of milk until you reach the right consistency.
Step 3

Now let the batter rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. This is an important step.
Step 4

Heat a 9- to 12-inch nonstick pan over medium heat, and add some butter or oil, or just spray it with some cooking spray.
Step 5

Let the pan get hot for about 30 seconds, then pour a small amount of crepe batter onto the center of the pan. About 1/4 cup to 1/3 cup should be the right amount for most pans.
Step 6

Swirl the pan around so that the crepe batter coats the whole pan, right up to the edges.
Step 7

Now let the crepe cook for about 30 seconds. The thin batter cooks quickly. You can check for browning using a spatula.
Step 8

Flip the crepe, let it cook for about 10 more seconds, and then remove to a cutting board or plate. If you want to keep them warm, place them parchment paper-lined baking sheet in a pre-heated oven.
Step 9

Keep repeating the process until all the batter is gone, then fill them with your desired ingredients and serve either serve the crepes hot or let them cool while flat.
Step 10

You can store crepes in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer. Serve with your choice of filling and enjoy!
