Ingredients
  

  • 3 Tablespoons 43g unsalted butter for batter and greasing
  • 1 cup 125g all-purpose flour spooned and leveled
  • 1 Tablespoon granulated sugar for sweetness
  • teaspoon salt for flavor balance
  • ¾ cup 180ml whole milk at room temperature for smooth batter
  • ½ cup 120ml water at room temperature
  • 2 large eggs at room temperature for even mixing
  • 1 and ½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract for flavor

Method
 

  1. Melt the butter in the microwave or on the stove. Let it cool for about 5 minutes.
  2. Blend the batter by combining the melted butter, flour, sugar, salt, milk, water, eggs, and vanilla in a blender or food processor. If you don’t have these, use a large mixing bowl and whisk by hand. Blend for 20–30 seconds until smooth.
  3. Chill the batter in the fridge for 30 minutes to 1 hour (or up to 1 day). If the batter separates, stir before cooking.
  4. Prepare the skillet by greasing it with some of the remaining butter. Place an 8-inch skillet over medium heat.
  5. Cook the first crepe by pouring 3–4 tablespoons of batter into the center of the hot skillet. Tilt the pan to spread the batter thinly. Cook for 1–2 minutes until the bottom is set, then flip and cook the other side for 30 seconds. Remove the crepe to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter. Remember to grease the skillet with butter between crepes.
  6. Fill the crepes with your desired fillings and toppings. Fold the sides over the filling. Crepes can be served warm or at room temperature.
