Prepare the crepe batter

In a large bowl, combine 30-35 grams of wheat flour, 0.25 of an egg, and about 60 ml of milk. If desired, add a pinch of salt and a variable amount of sugar to taste. Whisk the mixture until smooth, ensuring there are no lumps.

Cook the crepes

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of butter (approximately 1 teaspoon). Pour a small portion of the batter into the center of the skillet, tilting the pan to spread the batter evenly into a thin layer. Cook until the edges start to lift and the bottom is golden brown, about 1-2 minutes. Flip and cook the other side for about 1 minute. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Serve

Serve your crepes warm, accompanied by your choice of sides: mixed nuts, fresh fruits, vegetables, leafy greens, smoked salmon, cream cheese, or even a Snickers bar for an indulgent treat. Enjoy them rolled, folded, or stacked, filled with your favorite ingredients for a customized meal experience.
