Tips and Tricks
Batter Mixing
Whisk the eggs and flour together thoroughly before adding the liquids. This helps prevent lumps in the batter. Slowly add the water and milk while stirring continuously to create a smooth batter.
Butter
Use melted, unsalted butter for a richer flavor. Ensure it’s fully incorporated into the batter to prevent it from separating during cooking.
Resting the Batter
Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes. This allows the flour to fully hydrate and the gluten to relax, resulting in tender crepes.
Skillet
Use a non-stick skillet or a crepe pan for best results. Lightly spray or brush with cooking spray or oil before heating to ensure the crepes don’t stick.
Cooking Temperature
Heat the skillet to medium-high, but adjust as needed. If the crepes cook too quickly or burn, lower the heat slightly.
Pouring Batter
Use a ¼ cup measuring cup to pour the batter into the skillet. This helps ensure uniform crepes. Tilt the skillet immediately to spread the batter evenly, or use a crepe spreader for a more professional touch.
Flipping
Flip the crepe carefully once the edges start to lift and the bottom is lightly browned. Use a thin spatula to gently lift and turn the crepe to cook the other side.
Serving
Serve crepes warm with your favorite fillings and toppings. Sweet options include fresh fruits, whipped cream, Nutella, or powdered sugar. For savory crepes, try ham, cheese, spinach, or mushrooms.
Storage
Store any leftover crepes stacked with parchment paper between each crepe in an airtight container in the fridge. Reheat gently in the skillet or microwave.
Variation
Add a splash of vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon to the batter for extra flavor in sweet crepes. For savory crepes, you can add finely chopped herbs or a bit of grated cheese to the batter.
Presentation
Fold or roll the crepes for a classic presentation. Garnish with a dusting of powdered sugar, a drizzle of syrup, or a sprig of mint for a touch of elegance.
