These light, delicate crepes are quick to make and perfect for breakfast, dessert, or an indulgent afternoon treat. Fill them with your favorite spreads for a simple yet irresistible dish.

Ingredients

  • 2 eggs

  • 2 tablespoons water

  • 1 cup milk

  • 1 cup flour

  • 1 packet vanilla sugar

  • 1 tablespoon oil

Instructions

Prepare the Batter

  1. Place all the ingredients in a mixing bowl.

  2. Whisk well until smooth.

  3. You may lightly beat the mixture to make it extra airy, but most importantly, make sure there are no lumps in the batter.

Cook the Crepes

  1. Use a good-quality non-stick skillet or a dedicated crepe pan.

  2. Lightly grease the pan with a small amount of oil and heat it well.

  3. Pour a ladleful of batter into the center of the pan.

  4. Immediately tilt and swirl the pan so the batter spreads into a thin, even layer.

  5. Cook for about a minute, or until the edges begin to lift and the underside is lightly golden.

  6. Flip the crepe and cook for another minute on the other side.

Add Your Favorite Filling

Transfer the finished crepe to a plate and spread it with your favorite filling, such as:

  • Chocolate spread

  • Nutella

  • Melted dark chocolate with chopped nuts

  • Peanut butter

  • Fruit preserves or jam

  • Sweet cream cheese

  • Fresh fruit and whipped cream

Fold or roll the crepe and serve immediately.

Serving Tip

Dust with powdered sugar, drizzle with chocolate sauce, or top with fresh berries for an extra-special presentation.

Enjoy these soft, thin, and delicious homemade crepes for a café-style treat right at home!
