These Easy Crepes are light, buttery, and incredibly versatile — perfect for sweet or savory fillings, and ready in just 30 minutes.

Ingredients

  • All-Purpose Flour: 1 cup – The base that gives structure to the crepes
  • Eggs: 2 large – Provide richness and help bind the batter
  • Whole Milk: 1/2 cup – Adds creaminess and moisture
  • Water: 1/2 cup – Helps thin the batter for delicate texture
  • Granulated Sugar: 2 tablespoons – A touch of sweetness
  • Unsalted Butter: 2 tablespoons, melted – Adds flavor and helps prevent sticking
  • Salt: 1/4 teaspoon – Balances the sweetness and enhances flavor

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Equipment: Heat a nonstick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly grease with butter
  2. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Add eggs, then slowly whisk in milk, water, sugar, and melted butter until smooth. Let batter rest for 30 minutes
  3. Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: After resting, give the batter a stir. Ensure your skillet is hot and lightly buttered before each crepe
  4. Assemble the Dish: Pour 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet, swirling immediately to coat the bottom in a thin, even layer
  5. Cook to Perfection: Cook for about 1 to 2 minutes or until the edges lift and the bottom is golden. Flip and cook another 30 seconds to 1 minute
  6. Finishing Touches: Transfer to a plate or rack. Repeat with remaining batter, greasing the pan as needed
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Serve warm with your favorite toppings or fillings — from fruit and jam to Nutella or savory ingredients

Notes

  • Let the batter rest for smoother texture and better crepes
  • Use a small ladle for consistent portion size
  • Butter the pan lightly between crepes to prevent sticking
  • Crepes can be made ahead and reheated easily
