Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Milk
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.5 cup Water
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 2 teaspoons Sugar
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 2 tablespoons Oil or butter for frying
• 0.5 cup Jam or sweet filling of choice

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, milk, eggs, water, salt, sugar, and melted butter until smooth and lump-free. The batter should be thin, similar to heavy cream. Let it rest for 10 minutes.

Step 2

Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly coat the surface with a small amount of oil or butter.

Step 3

Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter into the pan, quickly swirling it to evenly coat the bottom in a thin layer.

Step 4

Cook the crepe for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges begin to lift and the bottom is golden brown.

Step 5

Using a spatula, carefully flip the crepe and cook the other side for another 1 minute until lightly golden.

Step 6

Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate and cover with a clean towel to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil or butter to the pan as needed.

Step 7

Once all the crepes are cooked, fill each one with your desired filling such as jam or sweetened cottage cheese. Spread a thin layer of the filling over the crepe and roll it up tightly.

Step 8

Serve warm and dust with powdered sugar if desired.
