Whisk the flour and the eggs together in a large mixing bowl. Slowly stir in the milk and the water. Add the salt and butter, and beat the mixture until smooth.

If you have a crepe maker, you probably know what to do next. If you're not so lucky...

Heat a griddle or frying pan to medium. Give it a very light spray of cooking oil. Drop the crepe mixture onto the heated surface. Using about a 1/4 cup of batter for each crepe. Tilt the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly. "Thin is in" when it comes to the layer of batter.

Cook each side until the golden brown brown (about 2 minutes for side one -- batter will bubble; and 1 minute for side 2). Gently remove and place on a plate. Place waxed paper between cooked crepes to prevent sticking.

This will make 8 crepes. 2 crepes make a serving.


One recipe and you can make a thousand different kinds of crepes. Use any filling or topping you can imagine. This is just a good basic, go-to crepe recipe.

Mr Breakfast would like to thank Mr Breakfast for this recipe.

Was good! Added about 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla. Served them with PB&J and Nutella with whipped cream on top. For dessert, not breakfast.

This is too basic. I suggest adding 2 pumps of vanilla.

Don't get the batter too thick. With hot pan, roll the pan so as to spread the batter. Serve with lemon juice and sugar, but not too much of either.
