Crepes by Nastya

Ingredients #

• 1 cup of flour
• 2 cups milk
• 2 tablespoons melted butter at room temperature
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions #

Prep your ingredients: Stick the butter in the microwave for 10 seconds until mostly melted.

Blend and rest: Put all of the ingredients in a blender and pulse to mix then blend for 30 seconds. Let it rest for at least 10 minutes. In the meantime, put your crepe griddle on a medium heat and let it come up to temperature, which will also take 10 minutes.

Cook: Lightly oil the crêpe griddle. Use a 1/4 cup measure to pour the batter onto the griddle then immediate pick up the griddle and aggressively roll in in a circular motion, ensuring that the entire griddle is coated in a thin layer. After 30-90 seconds use an offset spatulate to release the crepe from the pan and flip it.

Eat immediately: We serve them with compote made by cooking fruit down with sugar, bananas, Nutella, cheese, salmon, lemon juice, cheese…basically anything tastes good in a warm, slightly sweet-salty crepe.

Notes #

Storage: We use a plastic tortilla warmer to keep all the crepes warm until we’re ready to serve them. The 10.5" crepe griddle has burrito-size results. They keep well for one day in the refrigerator.
