BASIC CREPE BATTER
4 large eggs
1½ cups milk – more as needed
1½ cups all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon salt
2-3 tablespoons butter for basting the crepe maker cooking surface
Combine the eggs and milk in a bowl, whisk until combined.
Separately, combine the flour and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the
center of the flour and pour in ½ cup of the milk mixture. Whisking constantly,
gradually draw the flour in until you have a thick mixture. Add another ½ cup
of milk and whisk until blended and then add the last ½ cup milk and whisk
until you have a smooth batter.
Strain the batter to remove any lumps into a quart size measuring cup with a
lip and let rest for 30 minutes.
Cook the crepes and transfer them to a cooling rack. Proceed with the
remaining batter.
Once cool, stack the crepes between sheets of waxed paper.
