Dessert Crepes Ingredients:
- 4 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 ⅓ cups milk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons white sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
How To Make Dessert Crepes :
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, flour, melted butter, sugar, and salt until the mixture is smooth.
Heat a medium skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Grease the pan lightly with butter or oil using a brush or paper towel.
Using a serving spoon or small ladle, pour about 3 tablespoons of crepe batter onto the hot pan, tilting the pan to spread the batter evenly across the surface. Cook until golden brown, approximately 1 to 2 minutes per side. Serve the crepes warm.
Recipe Notes:
Ensure the batter is smooth, with no lumps in the flour, for evenly cooked crepes.
Let the batter rest for 10-15 minutes to help texture and reduce bubbles.
Use a nonstick skillet or crepe pan, lightly greased, for easy flipping.
Cook over medium heat—too hot and edges will burn before centers cook.
Spread batter thinly by tilting the pan for that classic delicate edge.
Flip gently once the underside is golden; cook the second side just until set.
Serve immediately while warm to retain softness; toppings like fruit, sugar, or whipped cream shine best fresh.
Leftover crepes can be stacked with parchment between them and refrigerated; reheat gently to avoid drying out.
