Ingredients
 

  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 ¼ cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons butter (melted)
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
  • Butter for the pan

Instructions
 

  • 1. In a blender, mix the eggs, milk, butter, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract for about 10 seconds. Add the flour and blend for about 30 seconds. The batter should be smooth.
  • 2. Transfer the batter to a bowl. If you have time, let the batter rest for 30 minutes up to 24 hours. (Cover and chill in the fridge.)
  • 3. Warm up a nonstick 8-10-inch pan or crepe pan over medium heat. Add a little butter to the pan; when it starts to foam, add about ¼ cup of the batter in the center of the pan, and immediately lift the pan off the heat and swirl the batter so that it forms a thin, even circle on the bottom of the pan.
  • 4. Cook the crepe until the batter is just set and the underside is lightly golden, about 1 minute.
  • 5. Using a rubber spatula, loosen the sides of the crepe and gently flip in the pan; cook for another 45 seconds.
  • 6. Transfer crepes to a plate. Repeat until all batter is gone.
  • 7. Serve with your favorite fillings: whipped cream, berries, bananas, Nutella, a few teaspoons of jam, or a sprinkling of cinnamon and sugar.

Notes

Note: To make this a savory crepe: omit sugar and vanilla extract. You could also add fresh herbs or finely grated Parmesan cheese.
