Ingredients

For the Crepe Batter:

1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups (360ml) milk
1/4 cup (60ml) water
2 tablespoons (30g) melted butter
1/2 teaspoon salt (for savory crepes, optional for sweet)
1 teaspoon sugar (for sweet crepes, optional for savory)

Suggested Sweet Fillings:

Nutella or chocolate spread
Fresh fruits (e.g., strawberries, bananas, or blueberries)
Whipped cream
Honey or maple syrup

Suggested Savory Fillings:

Sliced ham or turkey
Shredded cheese (e.g., mozzarella, cheddar)
Sautéed mushrooms or spinach
Scrambled eggs

Directions

Prepare the Crepe Batter:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together. Gradually add the flour, whisking to prevent lumps. Stir in the melted butter, water, salt, and sugar (if using).
- Cover the batter and let it rest for 20-30 minutes.
Cook the Crepes:
- Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly grease with butter.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the pan, tilting it to evenly coat the surface. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges begin to lift and the underside is golden.
- Flip and cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute. Remove and set aside.
Assemble the Takeaway Crepes:
- Spread your desired filling over the crepe, leaving the edges free for folding.
- For sweet crepes, layer Nutella, fruits, and whipped cream.
- For savory crepes, add ham, cheese, and sautéed vegetables.
- Fold the crepe in half, then fold again to form a triangular or wrap shape.
Package for Takeaway:
- Wrap the folded crepe in parchment paper or place it in a paper cone for easy handling.
