Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • Pinch of nutmeg

Instructions

  1. In a blender, mix flour, eggs, milk, melted butter, and salt until smooth. Chill the batter for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and lightly butter it. Pour in batter to form crêpes, cooking until golden on both sides.
