Prepare the Crepe Batter

Whisk together flour, milk, eggs, and melted butter until the batter is smooth. Let it rest for about 30 minutes, allowing the flour to absorb the liquid, which results in a tender crepe.

Cook the Crepes

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium. Lightly grease it with butter or oil. Pour a small amount of batter into the pan, tilting to spread evenly. Cook until the edges start to dry and center sets. Flip and cook briefly on the other side. Keep them warm.

Prepare the Filling

Mix the cheese (ricotta or cottage), with a bit of added sugar, until perfectly combined. Adjust the sweetness according to your taste.

Assemble the Crepes

Spoon a portion of the filling onto one half of each crepe. Fold the crepe over to cover the filling, creating a half-moon shape. You can also roll them up if preferred.

Final Cooking and Serving

Serve the stuffed crepes warm, with additional toppings if desired, such as fruit, syrup, or whipped cream.
