How to cook deliciously - Basic Crêpes

1. Stage

In a blender, blend eggs, milk, flour, granulated sugar, salt, and 3 tablespoons melted butter until smooth, about 1 minute. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to 2 days.

2. Stage

Preheat a 9" nonstick skillet over medium heat. Melt 1/2 teaspoon cold butter in preheated pan. Reduce heat to medium-low. Briefly whisk batter, then pour 1/4 cup into center of pan, lifting pan off heat and slightly tilting in a circular motion to help batter spread into an even circle. Cook until top is set and bottom is golden brown, about 45 seconds. Flip and cook on second side until cooked through, about 45 seconds more.

3. Stage

Using a spatula, fold crêpe into quarters. Transfer to plate. Repeat with remaining batter for a total of 8 crêpes.

4. Stage

Serve with berries and powdered sugar, if desired.

5. Stage

Make Ahead: Crêpes can be made 3 days ahead. Let cool, then stack between sheets of parchment, store in an airtight container, and refrigerate, or freeze up to 1 month.
