Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 cups milk
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
- Whipped cream
- Fresh fruits strawberries, blueberries, etc.
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and a pinch of salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and gradually add them to the dry ingredients, mixing well.
- In a small saucepan, melt the butter and let it cool for a few minutes.
- In another bowl, warm the milk until it's just heated but not boiling.
- Gradually add the warm milk to the batter, stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Add the melted butter and vanilla extract, and mix until the batter is smooth.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the skillet with butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Pour a small amount of batter into the skillet, swirling to spread evenly. Cook each crepe for about 1-2 minutes and gently flip the crepe using a spatula or flipping it in the air. Cook the other side for an additional 1 minute or until lightly golden.
- Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate and repeat the process with the remaining batter. If the skillet starts to stick, you can lightly re-grease it. Allow the crepes to cool completely.
- Place one crepe on a serving plate. Spread a thin layer of whipped cream over the crepe. Continue layering crepes and whipped cream until you have a stack.
- Top the cake with more whipped cream and fresh fruits.
- Refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours to let the flavors meld.
