25-30 pieces
Ingredients
- 1 cup Cold water
- 1 cup Cold milk
- 4 large Eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1 1/2 cups Flour
- 4 tablespoons Melted butter
- Additional butter to butter the pan
Directions
- In a bowl or food processor put water, milk, eggs and salt.
- Add the flour, then melted butter.
- Blend, process or beat on high for 1 minute. Scrape down the side of the bowl for any flour. Blend again briefly.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Once rested, head a large frying pan on moderately high heat. Rub the pan with butter.
- Using a ladle to measure out your batter, pour a ladleful of crepe mixture into pan and tilt pan in all directions to run the batter over the bottom of the pan in a thin film.
- Any excess batter should be poured back into the bowl.
- Return the pan to heat for 60-80 seconds. When you toss the pan slightly the crepe should start to come away on its own.
- Flip the crepe – either with a clever flick of the wrist or, if this is beyond you (as it is me) with a spatula.
- Brown lightly for about 30 seconds on the other side. Slide onto a plate and begin your next crepe, re-buttering the pan each time.
- You can keep the crepes warm in a low oven or reheat when you’re ready to eat.
- Wrap the crepes around a filling of your choice, roll up and enjoy.
