Crepes

Crepes are delicate, thin discs made from a simple batter of milk, butter, flour, eggs, and a pinch of salt. This classic cooking method creates crepes that are perfect for any meal, whether you prefer a sweet or savory filling. With a light, golden texture, these crepes are versatile and can be served warm with a variety of toppings.

Nutritional Benefits of Crepes

Crepes offer a balanced base of protein, carbohydrates, and healthy fats. Eggs contribute protein and essential nutrients, while milk and butter provide calcium and vitamin D, which are important for bone health.

How to Make Classic Crepes

  1. Melt the butter and add it to a large mixing bowl. Add the milk, flour, eggs, and salt, and mix with a whisk or mixer until the batter is smooth and has the consistency of liquid cream. Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  2. Lightly grease a non-stick pan with butter and place it over medium heat. Pour a small ladle of batter into the pan and tilt it to cover the entire surface with a thin layer.
  3. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the edges turn golden, then flip and cook the other side for another minute. Transfer each crepe to a plate and cover with a napkin to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Serving Suggestions

Serve these classic crepes warm with your choice of fillings. They’re delicious with melted chocolate, jam, fresh fruit, or even a scoop of ice cream for a sweet treat. For a savory option, try fillings like cheese, ham, or vegetables.
