  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/2 tbsp butter (for the pan)

Cooking Instructions

  • Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter until melted and bubbly.
  • Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet, swirling the pan to coat the bottom evenly.
  • Cook for approximately 1-2 minutes until the edges start to lift and the bottom is golden. Flip with the confidence of a ninja, and cook the other side for another 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  • Transfer to a plate and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter. You’ve got this!

Suggestions

Need some pizzazz? Swap the vanilla extract for almond extract. For a fruity twist, fill your crepe with fresh berries, and add a dollop of whipped cream. Chocolate lover? Drizzle with Nutella and a sprinkle of powdered sugar. Cooking tip: Keep an eye on the heat – too hot and your crepes will turn into Frisbees. Not ideal for breakfast.
