I Finally Did It! Batter to Make Springy Crepes
The crepes from my son's favorite crepe stand are so springy and delicious. I thought I would be able to make them at home. So I tried making them with cake flour, rice flour, with different egg amounts, etc. and had my son taste test them numerous times. Finally my son & I agreed that this is the best!
This is a precious parent and child collaboration recipe.
If you don't have strong (bread) flour, you can use cake flour but it won't be as springy.
The brandy is basically only used for the fragrance, so if you don't have any it's perfectly okay.
If you don't have any vanilla oil you can use vanilla extract, but I recommend the oil for recipes that are cooked. For 8 ~ 10 crepes. Recipe by Hamumaki

Cooking Instructions
- 1
In a bowl, add the flour, sugar, and salt without sifting and mix well.
- 2
Add the egg and half of the milk. Mix together completely.
- 3
When finished mixing, it will look like this.
- 4
Stir in the rest of the milk.
- 5
Add the brandy and the vanilla oil to taste, and pass the batter through a strainer. If you don't have vanilla oil, you can use vanilla extract. But I recommend oil!
- 6
It's best if you can let it rest in the refrigerator, but if you're in a rush, it's perfectly fine to make them right away. Before cooking each crepe, lightly stir the batter.
- 7
Lightly grease a heated frying pan with oil. Lightly pour in some batter while at the same time shaking the pan to spread out the batter and cover the pan's surface. Cook on a low-medium heat.
- 8
When the batter begins to lightly color, use long chopsticks to lift up just the edge of the crepe and then use your hands to flip it over. Check the state of the batter and adjust the heat accordingly!
- 9
You only need to cook the reversed side for a few seconds! I use a 26cm frying pan and fill up the ladle 80 to 100% with the batter.

Delicious Crepe Batter Delicious Crepe Batter
I've loved crepes since I was little. I researched the ingredient combinations, the way of mixing the batter and the way to get a nice crepe pattern, to make what I think is the ideal crepe.If you mix the ingredients in order with a whisk, you won't need to sift the flour to get a smooth batter. Once the oil starts to disappear, the pattern won't be so pretty, so add more oil after cooking the 2nd/3rd crepe. Recipe by Tomusuke

Simple & Delicious Crepe Batter Simple & Delicious Crepe Batter
This is a crepe batter that I really like and have been making for a long time.Once the crepe has been flipped, just cook it for a short time so that it doesn't burn. If you plan to fill the crepes with sweet ingredients, they'll taste better if you increase the amount of sugar in the batter. If you are using a non-stick pan you shouldn't have to use too much oil (at least if nothing is sticking). Recipe by Yuuyuu0221 -

Simple Crepes From Pancake Mix Simple Crepes From Pancake Mix
While I was working at a cake shop, I would make 3 liters' worth of crepes every day.3 liters is too much to make at home, so I adjusted the ingredient amounts for manageable portion sizes.If the frying pan is properly heated before you cook, you won't fail at cooking the crepes.You could use margarine instead of butter and it will still be good, but if you use a low-calorie spread, the crepes will tend to burn.Cooked crepes can be stored in the fridge if you wrap them individually.

Delicious The Next Day Too! Easy Smooth Crepe Batter Delicious The Next Day Too! Easy Smooth Crepe Batter
I didn't want to make crepes that taste good when they're freshly made but turn inedible the next day. So my aim was to create a recipe that only used everyday ingredients, that was easy to make, and resulted in crepes that taste great even after a day.If you rest the batter overnight, the gluten in the flour will settle down and the crepes will become even more flexible and less likely to rip. If you are going to use the crepes in a sweet dish, add a little vanilla oil or essence. If you cook the crepes over low heat the crepe will turn tough and less flexible, so be careful. Please adjust the amount of sugar to taste. For 8 approximately 20 cm [7.9 in] diameter crepes. Recipe by Iku.. -

Character Crepes Made from Pancake Mix Character Crepes Made from Pancake Mix
I thought about making a cloth-like crepe using pancake mix for my pancake and crepe-loving son, but inspiration struck when I was making it, so I rolled them up and drew on some faces.The faces will fall off if you don't strongly whip the heavy cream.Adding in lots of heavy cream gives these a good shape.When adding in more of milk B to turn it into a crepe batter, you will end up with crepes that are too thick if there is not enough milk, and you won't be able to tuck it in at the bottom. Please try it out after cooking just one piece. Recipe by Hamumaki
