How to Make Florentine Crepes

  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs, 2/3 cup (85g) all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1 cup (240ml) milk until completely smooth.
  2. Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes at room temperature.
  3. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8-inch non-stick skillet.
  4. Prepare your spinach filling (recipe not included, but a simple sautéed spinach with bacon or a vegetarian substitute would work well).
  5. Pour approximately 2 tablespoons of batter into the hot skillet for each crepe. Cook over medium heat for 1-2 minutes per side, or until lightly browned.
  6. Gently place each cooked crepe into a greased muffin tin, shaping it to create a ruffled edge that will hold the filling.
  7. Fill each crepe cup with the prepared spinach filling.
  8. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the filling is heated through and the crepes are golden brown and crispy.
  9. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
