  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients

  • 500 ml milk
  • 160 g wheat flour
  • 2 eggs
  • A pinch of salt
  • 1 teaspoon oil
  • A little butter for cooking

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, add flour and gradually whisk in milk to avoid lumps.
  2. Add eggs, salt, and oil, then whisk until smooth and lump-free.
  3. Cover and let the batter rest for 30 minutes.
  4. Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat and lightly grease with butter.
  5. Pour a ladle of batter into the pan and swirl to spread thinly.
  6. Cook for 1–2 minutes until edges lift and bottom is lightly golden.
  7. Flip and cook the other side for about 1 minute.
  8. Transfer to a plate and repeat with remaining batter.
  9. Serve with desired sweet or savory fillings.

Notes

  • Resting the batter improves texture and flexibility.
  • Use a non-stick pan for best results.
  • Adjust batter consistency with a little milk if too thick.
  • Stack crepes with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  • Reheat in a pan for better texture.
