Regular Crêpes
  1. 1

    Sift the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt into a large bowl. Stir in the milk, butter, and vanilla. Add the eggs and mix until smooth.

  2. 2

    Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using about 1/4 cup for each crêpe. Tilt the pan in a circular motion so the batter spreads to coat the surface evenly.

  3. 3

    Cook the crêpe for about 2 minutes, until the bottom is light brown. Loosen it with a spatula, flip, and cook the other side.

  4. 4

    Stack the finished crêpes with wax paper between each one. Keep them covered with a dry cloth until ready to eat.
