This Crepe Recipe Is So Easy, You'll Wonder Why You Never Made It Before

It's less than a month until Valentine's Day and this crepe recipe is sure to win your heart. In this recipe, I feature popular fillings that you can't go wrong with—such as Nutella, strawberries, whipped cream, and brownies. Yum. Choose whatever your heart desires—I 10/10 recommend spreading melted Nutella on a warm crepe (if you don't have nut allergies). The ingredients are cheap and simple. You probably already have every ingredient for the crepe batter without even knowing it.

• Prep Time:5 mins
• Cook Time:10 mins
• Total Time:15 mins
• Servings:2
• Medium

Ingredients

• 80 grams all-purpose flour
• 175ml milk
• 1/2 tablespoon sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1/2 tablespoon melted butter
• Oil
• 1 pinch salt
• brownies I used pre-made brownies I purchased but you can make your own
• strawberries
• whipped cream
• Nutella
• icing sugar to garnish

• Step 1

  Weigh the flour and transfer it to another bowl or blender. Use a sift to sift the flour while pouring it into the bowl or blender.

  

• Step 2

  Create a well and pour in the milk.

  

• Step 3

  Add the sugar and a pinch of salt.

  

• Step 4

  Whisk the eggs in another bowl, then gently add it to the flour and milk.

  

• Step 5

  Measure in the melted butter or oil.
  #SpoonTip: Melt the butter quickly in the microwave

  

• Step 6

  Use an electric whisk to mix the batter ingredients together, or turn on the blender (if you're using a blender). Mix/blend until the batter is smooth. Unlike pancakes, it's important that you don't create a thin, lumpy crepe.
  #SpoonTip: Set for at least an hour, or overnight in the fridge for best results.

  

• Step 7

  Using medium, or below medium heat, turn on the stove and heat oil in the pan.

  

• Step 8

  Using a ladle, spoon the batter into the pan. You want a fairly large crepe with a diameter of around 15-20cm.

  

• Step 9

  When the crepe has completely solidified on top, gently flip the crepe to the other side.
  #SpoonTip: After the edges have set, you can wiggle the pan or gently use your spatula to let air under the crepe so that it cooks evenly and doesn't rise in the middle.

  

• Step 10

  Take the pan off the heat source and gently spread some Nutella onto the crepe. Then remove the crepe from the pan.

  

• Step 11

  Add toppings to your crepe, fold and garnish. Then continue to make crepes until you're out of batter. This batch should make about 6 crepes.

  

• Step 12

  Fold the crepes. I like to roll them, but you can also fold them into triangles, depending on how you place your toppings.
