The ingredients come together quickly in the blender, and I add tips for cooking them perfectly every time. I can\u2019t take all the credit for this recipe because my husband taught me all the tricks. It takes practice, but as soon as you get the circular hand motion down, you will be a pro crepe maker in no time! <\/p>\n<p>Crepes are by far one of my favorite breakfast items to make. I also love crepes for dessert! Nothing beats a tender sweet crepe filled with fresh berries and whipped cream. You are going to love the thin pancake that can easily wrap around all of your favorite toppings.  You can serve them with my homemade <a href=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/blueberry-syrup\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">blueberry syrup<\/a> or this incredible<a href=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/homemade-strawberry-sauce\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\"> strawberry sauce<\/a>, but homemade <a href=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/homemade-whipped-cream\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">whipped cream<\/a> is a must!<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-ingredients-needed-for-crepes\">Ingredients Needed For Crepes<\/h2>\n<p>These perfect crepes require simple ingredients that are right in your pantry and ready to go! What is the difference between crepes and pancakes? Unlike pancakes, crepe batter does not have a raising agent in the batter. Pancake recipes use baking powder or baking soda as a raising agent. Pancakes are thick and fluffy, and crepes are thin and flat. This makes them ideal for rolling or wrapping!<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-crepe-batter\">Crepe Batter<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>All-purpose flour: <\/strong>This is the best flour to use for crepes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Milk:<\/strong> It adds creaminess and helps blend into a pourable batter.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Eggs: <\/strong>I always use large eggs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sugar:\u00a0<\/strong>For added sweet flavor.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Butter or Oil: <\/strong>This recipe uses cooled and melted butter or oil.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vanilla Extract: <\/strong>A splash of vanilla extract really enhances the sweet flavor if these crepes. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"h-cream-cheese-filling\">Cream Cheese Filling<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Cream Cheese:\u00a0<\/strong>The tangy cream cheese combined with sugar makes this filling so delicious. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Powdered Sugar:<\/strong> This helps to thicken the filling and adds some sweetness.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Whipped Topping:\u00a0<\/strong>Adds fluffiness to the filling.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"994\" alt=\"First photo of blended crepe batter.

It is simple to make and fun to do as a family! My girls love to help me blend it in the blender and pour the batter into the skillet. This crepe batter is ready in minutes and has all the flavor it needs with a few simple ingredients.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Blend the Batter:<\/strong> Blend the flour, milk, sugar, eggs, oil, and vanilla until the batter is completely smooth. I use a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.target.com\/p\/ninja-professional-blender-1000w-bl610\/-\/A-15124276#lnk=sametab\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">blender<\/a> and pulse until smooth, but you can also whisk it together in a bowl.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Prepare the Skillet: <\/strong>Brush a medium-sized nonstick skillet with oil. Heat the pan to medium heat. Once the pan is heated, add about 1\/4-\u00bd cup of batter to the pan.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add the Batter to the Skillet:\u00a0<\/strong>Pour the batter into the center of the pan. Using a circular hand motion, move the pan to spread the batter into a thin and even circle. I recommend a crepe spatula if you are wanting them really thin.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cook: <\/strong>Heat on one side for 30-40 seconds and then flip. The side will start to dry out and tiny bubbles will form. Repeat the process with the rest of the batter.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cream Cheese Filling:\u00a0<\/strong>If you make the cream cheese filling, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Fold in the whipped topping. Place 2 tablespoons on the crepe and roll it up. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"667\" height=\"1000\" alt=\"Close up of folding crepes on a gray platter.

Don\u2019t get discouraged with your first few crepes. They may not look your best, but they will still taste incredible! Here are some tips and tricks to make perfect crepes for you in your home!<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Use a Hot Pan:<\/strong> Be sure your pan is very hot when you pour your batter on it.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Use a Small Amount of Batter:<\/strong> Only pour just enough batter into the pan. It will coat the batter on the bottom completely before it sets.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Swirl the Pan Quickly:<\/strong> Tilt the pan quickly but also very carefully to distribute the batter evenly.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Batter Tip:<\/strong> The batter is ready when there are quite a few bubbles on top of the blender. If you don\u2019t, tap the side of the blender, and the bubbles should rise to the top.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chill the Batter:<\/strong> Refrigerate your batter for at least 30 minutes for perfect crepes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make Ahead: <\/strong>Crepes are great to make ahead of time! The batter will last in the refrigerator for 1 day.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Topping Ideas: <\/strong>Berries and whipped topping is classic but bananas, Nutella, or lemon curd are my favorite toppings!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Savory Crepes:<\/strong> Leave out the sugar and make your crepes savory! Simply add your favorite savory fillings like ham, cheese, or veggies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- .block-quick-tips__inner --><\/div>\n<p> <!-- .block-quick-tips --><\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s a quick story about my husband!  He served an LDS mission in France. When we started dating, I loved that he could speak French. The first time he said the big I love you, it was in French and that sealed the deal! He would always talk about how he is an amazing crepe maker. I absolutely love crepes, especially if they are stuffed with cream cheese goodness and fresh fruit. I always beg my husband to make them. So when he found his little mission recipe book and made me a batch, I was in heaven!<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"604\" height=\"453\" alt=\"21571_230088171990_4526907_n\" class=\"wp-image-7080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/21571_230088171990_4526907_n.jpg 604w, https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/21571_230088171990_4526907_n-280x210.jpg 280w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 604px) 100vw, 604px\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/perfect-crepes\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Perfect Crepes\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/21571_230088171990_4526907_n.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/21571_230088171990_4526907_n.jpg\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"604\" height=\"453\" src=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/21571_230088171990_4526907_n.jpg\" alt=\"21571_230088171990_4526907_n\" class=\"wp-image-7080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/21571_230088171990_4526907_n.jpg 604w, https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/21571_230088171990_4526907_n-280x210.jpg 280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 604px) 100vw, 604px\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/perfect-crepes\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Perfect Crepes\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/21571_230088171990_4526907_n.jpg\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>This picture was in taken in front of Chmbord.
