Ingredients

Sweet Crepes

  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) milk
  • ¾ cup (180 ml) water
  • 1/4 cup (58 g / 2 oz)unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup (140 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon (12 g) granulated sugar (see notes)

Savory Crepes

  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) milk
  • ¾ cup (180 ml) water
  • 1/4 cup (58 g / 2 oz) unsalted butter, melted melted
  • 1 cup (140 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • Pinch black pepper

Instructions

  • In a blender, combine all the ingredients. Blend the mixture until it is smooth and bubbles form on top, about 30 seconds.
  • Let batter sit at least 30 minutes at room temperature or overnight in the refrigerator in an airtight container (whisk before using).
  • Heat an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium. When hot, lightly spray with non-stick cooking spray or butter. Add ¼ cup batter and tilt the pan in a circular motion so that the batter completely covers the bottom of the skillet.
    NOTE: if you use a bigger skillet, add as much batter as necessary to cover the bottom of the skillet, i.e., for a 12-inch skillet, you will need to add 1/3 cup of batter. Cook until the underside of the crepe is golden brown, about 2 minutes. Then, loosen with a spatula, turn and cook the other side, about 1 more minute.
  • Fill as desired and serve, or store for later use.

Store: Let the crepes cool completely. Place a square piece of parchment paper between each crepe. Place wrapped crepes in a sealable plastic bag. Store in the refrigerator for 5 days and in the freezer for 2 months.
Make-Ahead: Prepare the batter and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.
Quick Tips:
  • A blender is a perfect tool for mixing up the batter.
  • The Crepe batter needs to be runny. Crepe batter is thinner than pancake batters, more like half-and-half than heavy cream. If your batter seems too thick and isn't spreading in the pan properly, don't hesitate to whisk in a few tablespoons of water to thin it out.
  • Probably the most important thing about the crepe batter is that you need to let it rest in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before you try to make the crepes. This will allow the air bubbles to settle so that the finished crepes won't have holes in them.
  • Use a nonstick pan or a well-seasoned crêpe pan for cooking the crepes.
