  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Omit for savory crepes.
Toppings
  • to taste Fresh strawberries, sliced (or other seasonal berries) Toss with lemon juice and sugar for extra flavor.

  3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with cooking spray or oil.
Cooking
  1. Pour a small amount of batter into the skillet, swirling to coat the bottom evenly.
  2. Cook for 1–2 minutes until edges lift, then flip and cook for an additional minute.
  3. Repeat with remaining batter, stacking cooked crepes on a plate.
Serving
  1. Serve warm topped with fresh sliced strawberries.

Notes

Refrigerate cooked crepes for up to 3–4 days or freeze for up to 2 months. To reheat, use a non-stick skillet or microwave covered with a damp paper towel.
