How to Make Orange Crepes
- **Prepare the Batter:** In a blender, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Blend briefly.
- **Add Wet Ingredients:** With the blender on low speed, add eggs one at a time, followed by milk, orange juice, vanilla extract, and orange zest.
- **Blend Until Smooth:** Increase the blender speed and blend until the batter is completely smooth and lump-free.
- **Add Melted Butter:** Gently stir in the melted butter.
- **Heat the Pan:** Heat a lightly oiled 8-inch non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat.
- **Cook the Crepes:** Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot pan, swirling the pan to create a thin, even crepe.
- **Brown the Crepes:** Cook for about 30-60 seconds per side, or until lightly browned and speckled.
- **Roll and Stack:** Gently roll each crepe as it's cooked and set aside on a plate.
- **Make the Orange Glaze:** In a small saucepan, whisk together 1/2 cup orange juice and 1 teaspoon cornstarch.
- **Simmer the Glaze:** Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens (about 2-3 minutes).
- **Assemble the Crepes:** Drizzle the orange glaze over the crepes.
- **Garnish and Serve:** Garnish with fresh berries and/or whipped cream, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
