Yields 40-50, small crêpes
Ingredients:
8 oz. all-purpose flour
1 oz. granulated sugar
1 pinch salt
6 oz. eggs
1 pint milk
2 ½ oz. clarified butter or vegetable oil
Method:
- Sift the flour, sugar and salt into a bowl.
- Add the eggs and just enough of the milk to make a soft paste with the flour. Whisk until smooth and lump free.
- Gradually mix in the rest of the milk and clarified butter or oil. The batter should be about the consistency of heavy cream. Refrigerate at least one hour.
- Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with clarified butter or oil. Pour about ¼ cup batter into skillet. Immediately tilt and swirl pan, coating the bottom of skillet with an even layer of batter.
- Flip when crêpe is a light golden brown. Cook the second side until the batter has just set. Slide the crêpe out of the pan onto a cooling rack. Continue making crêpes, adding more butter or oil, as needed.
