How to Make Crepes
crepes
Can be made without a blender and no eggs. The recipe I brought to make cooking easy for everyone, so anyone can cook.
Ingredients
For the Crêpe Batter:
1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour (or whole wheat flour)
2 eggs (or flaxseed egg for vegan)
1 ¼ cup (300ml) milk (or plant-based milk)
2 tablespoons melted butter (or vegetable oil)
1 tablespoon sugar (skip for savory crêpes)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for sweet crêpes)
¼ teaspoon salt
For Cooking & Serving:
Butter or oil (for greasing the pan)
Fillings: Nutella, fruits, honey, cheese, or scrambled eggs
Before We Start
Blend or whisk until smooth—this prevents lumps in the batter.
Let the batter rest for 15-30 minutes—this helps make the crêpes soft and flexible.
Use a non-stick pan for easy flipping.
Instructions
Make the Batter
Step 1: Take a blender or bowl, add flour, eggs, milk, melted butter, sugar, vanilla, and salt. Mix until smooth.
Step 2: Let the batter rest for 15-30 minutes (optional but recommended).
Cook the Crêpes
Step 3: Heat a non-stick or any pan over medium flame. Grease it with oil or butter.
Step 4: Pour the batter, 1/4 cup for every crêpe, swirling to coat the bottom evenly.
Step 5: Cook for a couple of minutes until the edges lift slightly, then flip and cook for another 30 seconds.
Fill & Serve
Step 6: Fill with your favorite toppings—Nutella, fruits, honey, cheese, or eggs. Fold or roll the crêpes and enjoy them warm.
It’s done! Enjoy every bite of your crêpes.
Serve
To serve these amazing homemade crêpes:
Use breakfast trays.
Small jars for toppings (honey, jam, or syrup—any).
Freshly brewed coffee or orange juice is the best.
Fresh fruits are a great choice. Nutella drizzling or a chocolate swirl is another good presentation idea.
