Classic Weekend Crêpes

An enjoyable brunch or late night dessert. These classic crêpes are versatile and easy to make. The one pre-requisite is a good tefal or non-stick pan.

Classic Crêpes

Makes about 15 medium crêpes from a 24 cm diameter pan.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup flour

  • 1/2 litre of milk

  • 4 eggs

  • 1/2 teaspoon of salt

  • 2 teaspoons of sugar

  • 50 g melted butter

Directions

  • Mix flour, salt and sugar in a large bowl 
  • Add one egg at a time, mixing them into the flour mixture with a fork. 
  • After mixing in the eggs, slowly add the cold milk to the batter, little by little. 
  • Melt the butter on the stove-top and let cool before whisking into the batter. 
  • Using a non-stick greased pan, ladle enough batter to thinly coat the base and your pan, quickly tilting the pan in all directions after pouring to spread the batter evenly. 
  • Cook for about a minute on each side or until brown 
  • Serve with your choice of butter, berries, brie, jam, sugar, lemon juice, honey, chocolate.

Notes

  • I recommend eating these with butter, brown sugar and lemon juice.
