These crepes can be used with a variety of sweet or savory fillings. They're the perfect foundation for our souffléd crepes or ricotta blintzes with berry compote.
Ingredients:
1 cup milk
1 egg
1/2 cup all-purpose flour, plus
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/2 tablespoon melted unsalted butter, plus
8 teaspoons unsalted butter
butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. In a blender, combine the milk, egg, flour, the 1/2 Tbs. melted butter and the salt and blend until smooth. Refrigerate for 2 to 8 hours.
2. In a crepe pan over medium heat, melt 1 teaspoons of the butter to coat the pan evenly. Lift the pan at a slight angle and pour 2 Tbs. of the batter into the center, tilting the pan to spread the batter to the edges.
3. Return the pan to the heat and cook until the crepe is golden underneath, 1 to 2 minutes. Using a spatula, flip the crepe over and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate and cover. Repeat with the remaining batter. Makes 8 crepes.
