- Loosen edge of crepe with a rubber spatula, and then with your fingertips, quickly flip. Cook for 1 minute more. Slide crepe out of skillet and repeat with remaining batter. (Coat pan with oil as needed.)
- Top or fill crepes with desired savory or sweet ingredients.
Notes
- Nutrition fact = 1 crepe without filling.
- For a savory option how about crepes lined with deli ham, a sunny-side-up egg, and topped with strawberry pico de gallo salsa.
