For the crepe batter

Directions

Mix the batter

Whisk the eggs in a bowl. Add the flour and salt and stir until smooth. Pour in the milk gradually while whisking, then mix in the melted butter.

Heat the pan

Warm a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Lightly coat it with a thin film of butter.

Cook the crepes

Pour in a small ladle of batter and swirl the pan to spread it into a thin layer. When the edges look set and the bottom is lightly golden, flip and cook the other side briefly.

Repeat and serve

Continue with the remaining batter, adding just a touch of butter as needed. Serve warm with sweet toppings (jam, honey) or savory fillings (cheese, greens).

This basic crepe recipe gives you thin, tender crepes for breakfast or brunch. The crepe ingredients are simple—eggs, flour, and milk—mixed into a smooth batter, then cooked in a lightly buttered pan. The flavor stays neutral so you can serve them sweet or savory.
