How to Make Easy Crepes

  1. In a blender or large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, eggs, milk, and melted butter until smooth. A few lumps are okay!
  2. Let the batter rest for at least 5 minutes (this helps develop the gluten and creates a more tender crepe).
  3. Heat a lightly oiled 8-inch nonstick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat.
  4. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot surface, tilting the pan to spread the batter thinly and evenly into a 6-7 inch circle.
  5. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip when the edges begin to lift and the top surface is set.
  6. Serve immediately with your favorite fillings, such as fresh fruit, whipped cream, chocolate sauce, or savory options like cheese and ham. Enjoy!
