French Crepes

Crepes are so easy to make and can be filled with sweet ingredients like blackberries and ricotta cheese or savory and filled with cooked chicken and spinach or broccoli. It's up to your imagination!


1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon white sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 eggs
2 cups milk
2 tablespoons butter, melted
Directions
Sift together flour, sugar and salt; set aside. In a large bowl, beat eggs and milk together with an electric mixer. Beat in flour mixture until smooth; stir in melted butter. Let sit for 10 mins or can even be refrigerated until ready.
Now my experience is that the first one or two don't turn out very pretty for some reason. By the time I do the third one they turn out great.
Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 2 tablespoons for each crepe. Tip and rotate pan to spread batter as thinly as possible. Brown on both sides and serve hot.
