Honey, for serving
Instructions:
1️⃣ Make the Batter:
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and eggs. Gradually add the milk while whisking to avoid lumps. Add the melted butter, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the batter is smooth and slightly thin. Let the batter rest for 15–20 minutes at room temperature (this helps the crepes become more tender).
2️⃣ Heat the Pan:
Preheat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease with a small amount of butter or oil.
3️⃣ Cook the Crepes:
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the center of the pan. Immediately swirl the pan to spread the batter evenly into a thin layer. Cook for about 1–2 minutes, or until the edges begin to lift and the underside is golden. Flip gently with a spatula and cook for another 30–60 seconds on the other side. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter.

4️⃣ Serve and Enjoy:
Fold or roll the crepes as desired. Drizzle generously with honey for a simple finish, or fill with fresh fruit, whipped cream, chocolate spread, or jam for extra indulgence.
Serving Tip:
Stack your cooked crepes on a plate and cover lightly with foil to keep warm while you cook the rest. Serve with a side of fresh berries or a dusting of powdered sugar for a picture-perfect breakfast or brunch.
