Crepe Recipe, Easy Batter, Lemon Zest, Squeeze Bottle, Duck Egg

Ingredients

• 1 cup All-Purpose Flour (sifted)
• 1 large Duck Egg (room temperature; can substitute chicken egg)
• 1 cup Milk (whole milk preferred; can use 2% or plant milk)
• 1 tsp Vanilla Extract (artificial or pure; use real if available)
• 1 tsp Lemon Zest (zest of one organic lemon, washed thoroughly)
• 1 pinch Salt (optional, enhances flavor)

Instructions

1. Gather Ingredients

   Measure 1 cup flour, 1 cup milk, 1 duck egg, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1 tsp lemon zest and a pinch of salt. Have a squeeze bottle ready for the batter.

   Time: PT2M

2. Combine Dry Ingredients

   Place the flour and salt in the mixing bowl and whisk briefly to aerate.

   Time: PT1M

3. Add Wet Ingredients

   Crack the duck egg into the bowl, pour the milk, add vanilla extract and lemon zest, then whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.

   Time: PT5M

4. Rest the Batter

   Let the batter sit at room temperature for 10 minutes so the flour fully hydrates and the flavors meld.

   Time: PT10M

5. Preheat Crepe Pan

   Place the non‑stick crepe pan over medium heat (about 350°F/175°C) and let it warm for 2 minutes.

   Time: PT2M

   Temperature: Medium heat

6. Lightly Oil the Pan (optional)

   Using a paper towel, wipe a thin layer of melted butter or oil on the pan surface; wipe off excess so the crepes stay thin.

   Time: PT30S

7. Cook First Crepe

   Pour about ¼ cup of batter into the squeeze bottle, squirt it into the center of the pan and quickly swirl to coat the surface in a thin layer. Cook 1‑2 minutes until edges lift and the bottom is lightly golden, then flip and cook another 30‑45 seconds.

   Time: PT2M

   Temperature: Medium heat

8. Repeat Until Batter Is Gone

   Repeat the pouring, swirling and cooking process for the remaining batter, adjusting heat as needed to avoid burning.

   Time: PT6M

   Temperature: Medium heat

9. Serve

   Stack the crepes on a plate, keep warm, and serve with your favorite fillings such as jam, Nutella, fresh fruit, or savory ham and cheese.

   Time: PT1M
