Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a blender, add all the ingredients to the crepe batter. (You can also use a bowl and hand mixer instead of a blender.) Blend the mixture until smooth and lump free.
    3 large eggs, ⅛ tsp salt, 2 tsp granulated sugar, 1 tsp vegetable oil, or canola, 1 1/4 cups whole milk, 1 cups all-purpose flour, ⅛ tsp baking soda
  • Heat a 9-inch nonstick skillet on medium heat. Lightly grease the skillet with cooking spray or oil.
  • Pour about 1/3 cup of crepe batter into the center of the hot skillet. Immediately tilt and swirl the pan to spread the batter into a thin, even circle, covering the pan. (If there are any gaps, just add a tiny bit more batter to fill any gaps and holes.)
  • Cook for about 1-2 minutes, until the edges begin to lift. With a spatula, carefully flip the crepe and cook for another 30-60 seconds, or until lightly golden.
  • Transfer the crepe to a plate or on the counter. Repeat with all the crepe batter, continue greasing the pan as needed. (If the crepes start to brown too fast, turn down the heat.)
  • Stack the cooled crepes onto a plate. Serve or cover and store in the fridge for 3-5 days.
  • Serve with desired toppings, fillings, or sides.
