Ingredients
- 1 cup milk
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 cup eggs
- 1 cup flour
- 1 pinch salt
- 3 tablespoon butter
Preparation
Baking Directions:
Combine the milk, water, eggs, flour and salt in a blender.
Blend on medium speed for 15 seconds, until the batter is smooth and lump-free.
Scrape down the sides of the blender and pour in 3 tablespoons of melted butter.
Blend it again for a second just to incorporate.
Refrigerate the batter for 1 hour to let it rest.
If the crepes are made immediately, they have a tendency to be rubbery; where letting the batter rest, gives you a better texture and a softer product.
Put an 8-inch crepe pan or non-stick skillet over medium heat and brush with a little melted butter for added insurance.
Pour 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan and swirl it around so it covers the bottom evenly; pour back any excess.
Cook for 30 to 45 seconds until the crepe batter sets.
Lightly bang the edge of the pan with a wooden spoon to loosen the crepe, then flip it over in the air and cook another 30 seconds.
The art of flipping a crepe takes practice, so make sure no one is looking when you get the first one going.
If this intimidates you, use a heat-proof rubber spatula.
The crepes should be pliable, not crisp, and lightly brown.
Slide them onto a platter and continue until all the batter is used.
Cover the stack of crepes with a towel to keep them from drying out.
