Ingredients
Scale
Crepe Batter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 ¼ cups milk
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Filling and Garnish
- ½ cup fresh strawberries, sliced
- ½ cup fresh blueberries
- ½ cup fresh raspberries
- Powdered sugar, for sprinkling
Instructions
- Make the Crepe Batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt until well combined. Gradually add the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract, whisking continuously until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
- Prepare the Skillet: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Cook the Crepes: Pour approximately ¼ cup of batter into the skillet and immediately tilt and swirl the pan to evenly coat the bottom with a thin layer of batter. Cook the crepe for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the edges begin to lift and the underside is lightly golden.
- Flip the Crepe: Carefully flip the crepe using a spatula and cook for an additional 30 seconds. Remove the crepe from the skillet and place it on a plate. Repeat this process with the remaining batter, stacking the crepes as you go.
- Assemble the Crepes: Once all the crepes are cooked, place a handful of fresh strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries onto each crepe. Fold or roll the crepes as desired.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle the filled crepes lightly with powdered sugar before serving for a touch of sweetness and an elegant finish.
Notes
- For an extra rich flavor, use whole milk or substitute with half-and-half.
- The batter can rest for 15-30 minutes to improve texture, but can be used immediately if pressed for time.
- Use a well-seasoned non-stick skillet or crepe pan for best results to avoid sticking.
- Fresh berries can be substituted with any seasonal fruits of your choice.
- To keep crepes warm, cover them loosely with foil while cooking the remaining batter.
