Ingredient notes

  • 1/2 cup of lukewarm water is approximately 120 ml.
  • 1 cup of warm milk can be any kind of milk you prefer.
  • 4 tablespoons of melted unsalted butter is equivalent to 56 g.
  • 1 cup of all-purpose flour is about 120 g.

Tips from Natashas Kitchen’s video

  • Start with the wet ingredients in the blender to make mixing easier and usually avoid the need to scrape down the sides.
  • Use a nonstick pan for best results, and only add a small dot of butter if needed for greasing.
  • Swirl the batter in the pan to ensure an even coating; the first crepe might not be perfect, so don't be discouraged!
  • Cook the crepes until the edges turn golden, then flip them quickly to avoid overcooking.
