Ingredients

• 120 grams All-purpose flour
• 300 ml Milk
• 2 large Eggs
• 30 grams Unsalted butter (melted)
• 0.25 teaspoons Nutmeg (freshly grated)
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 2 tablespoons Honey (for serving)
• 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, sift together the flour, nutmeg, and salt.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until frothy, then gradually add the milk while whisking until the mixture is smooth.

Step 3

Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking continuously to avoid lumps.

Step 4

Stir in the melted butter to create a smooth batter. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes to allow the flour to fully hydrate.

Step 5

Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.

Step 6

Once the pan is hot, pour a small ladle (about 60 ml) of batter into the center of the pan. Tilt the pan in a circular motion to spread the batter thinly and evenly.

Step 7

Cook for about 1-2 minutes or until the edges start to lift and the underside turns golden brown. Flip the crepe carefully with a spatula and cook the other side for an additional minute.

Step 8

Transfer the cooked crepe to a warm plate and repeat the process with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as needed.

Step 9

Stack the crepes and keep them warm under a clean kitchen towel until all are cooked.

Step 10

To serve, drizzle the crepes with honey and sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired. Enjoy hot or at room temperature.
