Cook the crepes over medium heat: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from burning.
Flip the crepes carefully: Use a spatula to gently flip the crepes so they don't tear.
Serve the crepes immediately: Crepes are best served warm, so fill them with your favorite fillings and enjoy them right away.
