Ingredients
  

Crepe Batter Ingredients
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1.5 cups milk Dairy-free alternatives like coconut or almond milk work well.
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter Use Halal-certified ingredients if needed.
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon sugar (optional) Adjust based on preference.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, melted butter, salt, and sugar (if using). Ensure no lumps remain for a smooth batter.
  2. Allow the batter to rest for about 15-30 minutes at room temperature.
  3. On medium heat, preheat a non-stick skillet and lightly grease it with melted butter or oil.
  4. Pour around 1/4 cup of the batter into the center of your skillet, tilting to spread it thinly. Cook for about 1–2 minutes until edges lift slightly.
  5. Carefully flip the crepe using a spatula and cook for another minute on the opposite side. Remove and place on a plate.
  6. Continue this process with the remaining batter, stacking the crepes on the plate as you go.

Notes

Store leftover crepes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze them for later. To reheat, warm in a skillet over low heat or microwave for about 20 seconds.
