Basic Crepe Recipe

Ingredients

??- **1 cup all-purpose flour**
– **2 large eggs**
– **1/2 cup milk**
– **1/2 cup water**
– **1/4 teaspoon salt**
– **2 tablespoons melted butter**

Preparation

1. **Mix the Batter:**
– In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and the eggs.
– Gradually add in the milk and water, stirring to combine.
– Add the salt and butter; beat until smooth.

2. **Heat a Skillet:**
– Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat.
– Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each crepe.
– Tilt the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly.

3. **Cook the Crepes:**
– Cook the crepe for about 2 minutes, until the bottom is light brown.
– Loosen with a spatula, turn and cook the other side.

4. **Serving:**
– Serve hot with a sprinkle of powdered sugar and fresh berries like strawberries, blueberries, and blackberries.
– You can also add whipped cream, Nutella, or any other toppings of your choice.

Tips:
– Make sure the batter is smooth without lumps. You can use a blender to ensure smoothness.
– The pan should be hot enough to cook the crepe quickly but not so hot that it burns.
– If the first crepe doesn’t turn out well, don’t worry. It’s common for the first crepe to be a bit off. Adjust the heat as needed and try again.
