Simple Crepes

Prep Time \1 hour 10 minutes

 Cook Time \15 minutes

 Total Time \1 hour 25 minutes

Ingredients

• 3 tbsp. vegetable oil, any neutral-flavored oil suitable for baking, such 
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• 1 1/2 cups unflavored soy or almond milk as canola, plus extra for the pan
• up to 1/3 cup water
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract, optional
• 1 tbsp. maple syrup, optional

Instructions

• Place all ingredients except water into a medium mixing bowl and whisk together until completely smooth.
• Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Start with a test crepe. Very lightly oil the surface of a nonstick frying pan and place over medium heat. 
• When the pan is hot, add about 1/4 cup of batter and quickly swirl it around until the entire bottom surface of the pan is coated and batter takes on a generally circular shape. 
• Cook just until the edges start to pull away from the bottom of the pan, about a minute. Very carefully flip and cook 10-15 seconds more on other side. Slide the crepe out of the pan and onto a plate.

• Adjust the batter as needed. 
• If it seemed too thick and was difficult to swirl, whisk in a few splashes of water.
•  Repeat until all batter is used up, adjusting by adding more water as needed. 
• Lightly reoil the pan as needed between crepes.
• Serve with your favorite sweet or savory fillings.
