ULTRA FLUFFY CREPE RECIPE
Ingredients:
* 1 large egg (or 2 regular eggs) + 2 yolks
* 1.5 cups Milk
* 1/2 teacup Vegetable Oil
* 1 cup Flour (approx.)
* 1/2 teaspoon Salt
Instructions:
1. Whisk eggs and milk until smooth.
2. Add oil and salt, whisk well.
3. Gradually incorporate flour, whisking until the batter is perfectly smooth and pourable. Ensure the flour is completely dissolved.
4. Cook in a preheated, non-stick pan over medium heat. Add a ladleful of batter, swirling the pan immediately to create a nice, thin layer.
5. While cooking, drizzle a tiny bit of oil around the edges to help it detach.
6. Flip when the first side is beautifully golden. Cook the second side for about 10 seconds, then remove from heat.
7. Serve immediately with desired toppings (chocolate, banana, pistachios, jam, fruit platter, etc.). Bon appétit!
