Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole Milk (cold, preferably 2% or whole)
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted Butter (melted)
- 1 tablespoon Granulated Sugar (white granulated)
- 4 Large Eggs (room temperature)
- 1.5 cups All-Purpose Flour (sifted)
- 1 pinch Salt (fine sea salt)
- 1 dash Vanilla Extract (pure vanilla)
- 2 tablespoons Nutella Hazelnut Spread (room temperature for easy spreading)
- 4 Fresh Strawberries (washed, hulled, sliced thin)
- 1 tablespoon Powdered Sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
Gather Ingredients and Equipment
Measure out all liquids, butter, sugar, eggs, flour, salt, and vanilla. Have Nutella, strawberries, and powdered sugar ready for topping.
Time: PT5M
Melt the Butter
Place butter in a small microwave‑safe dish and melt for 20‑30 seconds, or melt in a tiny saucepan over low heat. Set aside to cool slightly.
Time: PT2M
Blend the Batter
In the blender, combine the milk, melted butter, sugar, eggs, flour, pinch of salt, and dash of vanilla. Blend on medium speed for 30‑45 seconds until the batter is completely smooth and free of lumps.
Time: PT2M
Rest the Batter (Optional)
Let the batter sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes. This allows the flour to hydrate and yields more tender crepes.
Time: PT10M
Preheat the Skillet
Place the non‑stick skillet over medium heat. Heat until a few drops of water sizzle and evaporate when the pan is tilted.
Time: PT3M
Temperature: Medium heat (~350°F)
Lightly Grease the Pan
Add a small dab of butter or oil to the skillet and swirl to coat the surface evenly. Wipe excess with a paper towel so the crepes are just barely greased.
Time: PT1M
Cook the First Crepe
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the center of the pan. Immediately lift and tilt the pan, swirling the batter so it spreads into a thin, even circle.
Time: PT2M
Temperature: Medium heat
Flip and Finish the Crepe
When the edges start to lift and the surface looks set (about 45‑60 seconds), slide the spatula under the crepe and flip. Cook the other side for another 30‑45 seconds until lightly golden.
Time: PT2M
Temperature: Medium heat
Add Fillings and Fold
Transfer the crepe to a plate. Spread a thin layer of Nutella, place a few strawberry slices, fold the crepe in half, then fold again to form a triangle. Dust with powdered sugar.
Time: PT3M
Repeat for Remaining Batter
Repeat steps 6‑9 until all batter is used, greasing the pan lightly between each crepe. Stack finished crepes on a warm plate, covering with foil to keep them soft.
Time: PT10M
Temperature: Medium heat
