Ingredients (for 1 serving – easily scalable)
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 small tablespoon butter
- 1 egg
- ½ liter milk
- Pinch of vanilla extract or vanilla powder
Instructions
- In a blender, add the egg, vanilla, and sugar. Blend until well combined.
- Add the milk and melted butter, then blend again.
- Gradually add the flour and blend until the batter is completely smooth with no lumps. The consistency should be similar to thin pancake batter.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease with butter.
- Pour a ladleful of batter into the pan and swirl to spread it thinly. Cook for 1–2 minutes until the edges start to brown, then flip gently and cook the other side for another minute.
- Repeat with the remaining batter. Stack the crepes and serve warm with your favorite fillings: Nutella, sliced bananas, strawberries, honey, or powdered sugar.
Pro Tips for Perfect Crepes
- Let the batter rest for 10–15 minutes if you have time — it helps the gluten relax for softer crepes.
- Use a non-stick pan and keep the heat on medium to avoid burning.
- For extra thin crepes, add a little more milk to thin the batter.
- Make a big batch and store in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for later use.
- Sweet version: Add more sugar. Savory version: Remove sugar and add salt and herbs.
