Equipment
- Kitchen-Aid Flex spatula
Ingredients
Easy Crepes
- 5 eggs
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 cups milk
- 2 tsp Canola oil
- 2 Tbsp granulated sugar
- 3/4 tsp salt
Instructions
How to make easy crepes:
- Pre-heat an 11-inch non-stick skillet over low heat. Beat together the eggs and flour until a thick paste forms.
- Gradually add milk over low speed until mixture smooths out. Beat in remaining ingredients.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter into the pre-heated pan and quickly tilt and shake side to side for the batter to spread evenly.
- Cook until edges slightly crisp and flip over. Cook an additional 45 seconds before removing. Stack and repeat.
- Serve filled or alone. Makes 22 crepes.
Notes
For savory crepes: Omit the sugar.
To use a blender: Throw all the ingredients in no given order and blend until smooth.
Note: This recipe can easily be doubled, quadrupled, etc to serve a large crowd or banquet.
TO FREEZE CREPES: Roll or fold each individual crepe into fours to prevent sticked together crepes. Freeze in zip-loc bags. I like to roll mine filled with cheese then layer between butter for ready-to-bake crepes and freeze in disposable foil pans.
