Step-by-Step Instructions
Let’s start by making the crepe batter! In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, eggs, milk, melted butter, sugar, and vanilla extract. Whisk everything together until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. I love the creamy consistency—it’s almost like a velvet texture. Allow the batter to rest for about 30 minutes at room temperature; this step helps to achieve that delicate crepe texture I adore. After my first batch, I found the resting period really made a difference! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
