Recipe submitted by DaVita dietitian Carol from Delaware.
Portions: 12 to 15 crepes
Serving size: 1 crepe
Ingredients
- 3 large eggs
- 1-1/3 cups whole milk
- 3/4 cup all purpose white flour
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
Preparation
- Blend eggs and milk in a blender to combine.
- Slowly add flour and blend for 1 minute. Cover and let mixture sit for 1 hour.
- Pour crepe batter into a bowl and whisk in melted butter.
- Heat an 8-inch crepe pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with butter or nonstick cooking spray.
- Using a 1/4 cup measure, pour batter into skillet. Make sure the batter lies evenly, moving the pan if needed. Crepe will bubble slightly.
- Loosen edges of crepe and remove from pan when crepe is golden on the bottom and edges are slightly browned. (It needs to be browned on one side only as crepes will be rolled or folded.)
