Moist Chewy Crepes

I've always loved crepes and often made it without giving much thought to the ratio of ingredients, but this time, I measured them out well. Because these crepes are so simple and yet easy to handle, I decided to post the recipe here!

Take care to strain the batter to remove lumps - this really makes a difference. There's no need to grease the pan if it's a non-stick frying pan. Make sure to heat the frying pan well. It's a simple taste, so you could make a meal with it for sure. Recipe by Lesser Panda

Ingredients

10 servings
  1. 100 gramsCake flour
  2. 1 1/2 gramsSugar
  3. 1 pinchSalt
  4. 2 largeEgg
  5. 300 gramsMilk
  6. 1few drops Vanilla oil
  7. 20 gramsVegetable oil (or melted butter)
  8. 2 gramsWhen making Mille Crêpe cakes, add baking powder

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Combine cake flour, sugar, and salt (and baking powder, if making Mille Crêpe) in a bowl. Whisk to break any lumps. Add eggs and mix well.

  2. 2

    When smooth, add milk in several batches. Mix some more until smooth. If you add all the milk in one go, the batter will get lumpy.

  3. 3

    Now add the vegetable oil and vanilla oil, and continue to mix. The batter will be nice and smooth. It might look nice, but there may be lumps hiding underneath.

  4. 4

    Pass the batter through a sieve to remove any lumps or impurities. Finally, the batter is really smooth. At this point, you should heat the frying pan.

  5. 5

    Lightly grease the frying pan and pour in one ladleful of the batter. Spread it out quickly to cook. When using a non-stick frying pan, you don't need any oil.

  6. 6

    When the edges dry and raise, insert a chopstick on the bottom. Turn and roll the crepe up to flip over.

  7. 7

    Cook for a few seconds, and it's done. Spread it out onto a serving plate. When the other batches are done, layer them together. You could make 7 to 8 crepes that are 25 cm in diameter.

  8. 8

    Serve with toppings of your choice, or fold in any filling to finish. It's actually quite firm and easy to handle.

  9. 9

    With some cake syrup and powdered sugar. I served some to my kids with whipped cream, chocolate sprinkles, and bananas. They loved it!

  10. 10

    So moist chewy, airy, and delicious. Fold them up to make layers.

  11. 11

    In this photo, I sandwiched some whipped cream and thinly sliced bananas to make a mille crêpe cake. I used 150 ml heavy cream and 3 bananas. I used a 20 cm frying pan.

  12. 12

    This one is a chestnut cream mille crêpe cake.
