My French Grandmother makes crepes all the time. She never measures, so I watched her one day and eyeballed her recipe. Enjoy!

Steps

1

Whip the egg whites until they form soft peaks. Add a teaspoon of sugar.
2

In a separate Bowl beat the egg yolk with a tablespoon of flour. Add 2 tablespoons of oil and remaining sugar. Pour in one tablespoon of vanilla.
3

Pour the milk one cup at a time alternating with one cup of flour into the egg yolk mixture. Once it is all Incorporated, slowly add the whipped egg whites.
4

Let the batter rest at room temperature for about two to three hours, stirring every so often. (It is best to refrigerate this overnight) Preheat a pan and lightly oil. Add a 1/4 cup of mixture at a time.
5

Pour about a quarter cup of the batter at a time into the oil and spin your pan around until the mixture coats the entire pan. Let it cook until the edges start drying and you can visibly see that it has dried in the middle. Very carefully peel from the edge and flip it over and cook for another 30 to 45 seconds. Each time you take one out of the pan, re oil your pan.
