anything!

2. INGREDIENTS
For the Crêpe Batter Fillings (choose from these and more)
• 2 large eggs • Nutella
• 3/4 cup milk • Banana slices
• 1/2 cup water • Freshly Whipped Cream
• 1 cup flour • Fresh Blueberries
• 3 tablespoons melted butter • Lemon Curd (see our recipe)
• Butter, for coating the pan • Powdered Sugar
• Fresh Strawberries
• Crème Fraîche
• Chocolate Sauce
• Strawberry Preserves
• Dulce de Leche ice cream
• Caramel Sauce

3. {STEP 1}
Prepare the Batter
and Let it Rest

4. {STEP 1} Prepare the Batter
Mix all batter ingredients in a blender for about 30 seconds, until completely blended.
Allow batter to “rest” in refrigerator for at least one hour or overnight.
“Resting” the batter increases its viscosity, making it easier to pour and
cook. The longer the batter rests, the more tender the Crêpes. If you
don’t have time to let the batter rest, don’t worry about it. Try it both
ways and see if you notice a difference.

5. {STEP 2}
Cook the Crêpes

6. {STEP 2} Cook the Crêpes
Heat an 8-10 inch crêpe or sauté pan over medium heat. Brush pan with butter.
Pour just enough batter to coat the bottom and lowest edges of the pan. Pour batter into
center of pan first, then swirl pan quickly to move batter around bottom of pan so that it’s
coated with a thin layer of batter (watch the video to see how we do it).
Let the crêpe cook for about 30 seconds (until it’s lightly browned on the bottom and bubbles
appear around the edges). Flip and cook for another 15 seconds or so. Remove from pan to
cool.
Continue cooking crêpes until batter is used up.
Gently stack pancakes in a circular layout on a plate
to cool (this makes them easier to pick up than
stacking them directly on top of each other.

7. {STEP 3}
Fill the Crêpes!
