Basic Sweet Crepes image

This recipe is from "JOY of COOKING" and it is the best Crepe recipe I know of. I make it all the time, in a blender, leaving it overnight in the refrigerator, to fix strawberry crepes for Sunday breakfast.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 40m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup lukewarm water
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Pour the batter into a pitcher or other container with a pouring lip.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and let stand for 30 minutes or in refrigerate for up to 2 days. (This allows the flour to thoroughly absorb the liquid and gives the gluten in the flour a chance to relax.).
  • Place a nonstick or seasoned crepe pan over medium heat. Coat the pan with a little unsalted butter.
  • Stir the batter and pour about 2 tablespoons into the pan, lifting the pan off the heat and tilting and rotating it so that the batter forms an even, very thin layer. Cook until the top is set and the underside is golden. Turn the crepe over, using a spatula or your fingers (fingers work best here) and cook until the second side is lightly browned. Remove the crepe to a piece of wax paper. Continue cooking the rest of the crepes, buttering the pan and stirring the batter before starting each one.
  • Stack the finished crepes between sheets of wax paper.
  • Use immediately or let cool, wrap airtight and freeze for up to 1 month.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but these crepes didn't turn out well. They were too thick and rubbery.

These crepes were a bit bland. I think I'll add some more sugar or vanilla extract next time.

I had a hard time getting the crepes to cook evenly. Some parts were too brown while others were still undercooked.

These crepes were a bit too thick for my taste, but they still tasted good. I'll try making them thinner next time.
