How to Make Kittencal's Crepes

  1. In a food processor, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and blend for 10 seconds.
  2. Add 2 large eggs, 1 1/2 cups warm milk (about 105-115°F), and 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter to the food processor.
  3. Blend until a smooth, thin batter forms (about 30 seconds).
  4. Let the batter rest at room temperature for 15-20 minutes to allow the gluten to relax.
  5. Lightly brush a lightly oiled 8-inch non-stick skillet with 2-4 tablespoons of softened butter. (Alternatively use cooking spray)
  6. Heat the skillet over medium heat until a drop of water sizzles on the surface.
  7. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet and immediately swirl the pan to create an even, thin crepe.
  8. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side, or until lightly golden brown. Flip carefully using a thin spatula.
  9. Stack finished crepes on a plate, covering with foil to keep them warm and pliable.
  10. Serve immediately with your favorite fillings, such as fresh berries, whipped cream, chocolate sauce, or lemon curd.
