Crêpes

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 ¼ cup milk
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted

Instructions 

Whipped Cream

  • Pour heavy cream into a large mixing bowl and beat on medium speed until it begins to thicken.

Crêpes

  • In a blender, combine the eggs, vanilla, sugar, milk, flour, and butter and blend for 10 seconds. Transfer the crêpe batter to a medium bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to one day to allow the batter to rest and the flour to fully absorb the liquid.
