Steps:
- Melt the Butter and set aside to cool down.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Plain Flour, Caster Sugar and Salt. Create a well in the middle of the bowl.
- Mix the melted Butter and Milk (see note 1), then pour about 2/3 of the batter into the well. Mix well with a whisk until you get a thick batter.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the Eggs (see note 2), then add it to the Batter. Whisk until combined and smooth - you should not have big lumps anymore.
- Add the rest of the Butter/Milk Liquid and whisk well until all combined. You should have a rather liquid batter (see note 3). Cover the bowl and place in the fridge to rest for at least an hour, or up to 24 hours (see note 4).
- Heat up a Non-Stick Skillet or Crepe Pan on medium/high heat and grease it with a little bit of butter.
- Pour some batter over the Pan: - if using a regular pan, hold the pan on an angle while pouring the batter and continuously turn the pan around in a rotating movement to spread the batter- if using a crepe pan, use the crepe spreader to spread the batter, doing one circular movement from the centre of the pan
- Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the edges of the crepe start to lift up. Use a wooden spatula to go under the crepe and flip it over. Cook the other side for about 1 minute.
- Place the cooked crepe on a plate and repeat until you have cooked all the batter. Adjust the temperature of the stove if needed, and re-grease the pan between each crepe if they seem to stick to it.

Steps:
- In a large mixing bowl whisk the flour, sugar, and salt until combined. Then create a well with dried ingredients and add the eggs. Gradually pour in milk, whisking to combine after each addition.
- The batter should be fairly fluid. If it seems too thick, add a little more milk. Then add the melted butter, mix well. Let the batter stands at room temperature until slightly bubbly on top, 30 to 60 minutes.
- Heat a non-stick pan. Add butter to coat. Pour 2-3 tablespoons of batter into the center of the pan and swirl to spread evenly. Cook for 2 minutes, then flip and cook 1 minute more.
- Lay them out flat so they can cool. Continue until all batter is gone. After they have cooled you can stack them and store them in sealable plastic bags in the refrigerator for several days or in the freezer for up to two months. When using frozen crepes, thaw on a rack before gently peeling apart.
REAL FRENCH CREPES
I am a French Canadian from Montreal, this recipe is one of the first ones that I learned as a child growing up and can either be served traditional style with REAL maple syrup on top or cold with ice cream rolled into it and chocolate syrup on top as a dessert.
