Crêpes

Authentic French crêpes made in the blender with eggs, flour, milk and vanilla. Easy recipe for about 20 thin crêpes, with topping ideas.

Ingredients

(For about 20 crêpes)

  • 3 eggs
  • 2 cups flour
  • 3 1/4 cups milk
  • Vanilla extract to taste
  • A pinch of salt
  • Half a stick of butter to grease the pan

Instructions

  1. In your blender, pour the eggs, the flour, the milk, a few drops of vanilla extract, the salt and blend together until smooth. If the batter seems too thick, add a little bit of milk. It should be thinner than pancake batter but thick enough for the crêpe to have the right consistency.
  2. Heat a non-stick frying pan (the flatter it is, the better) on medium-high heat. (Heat may need to be adjusted.) When hot, grease it well with butter. Then, pour a small amount of your batter into the pan and swirl the pan a little bit to evenly spread the batter. The batter should lightly cover the bottom of the pan.
  3. When the edges of the crêpe become golden brown and start to unstick from the pan, flip the crêpe over with a flat spatula and cook the other side for a few seconds.
  4. Enjoy your crêpes with: Nutella, sugar and lemon juice, peanut butter, whipped cream, honey, maple syrup, jelly, sugar, fruits, and more… Just like your pancakes!

Grease your pan each time you want to make a crêpe (before pouring the batter). After the first crêpe, use less butter. You don’t need to grease again when you flip the crêpe over.
