Notes

Crepe pan: I am using a 10-inch French crepe pan. It makes 12 perfectly thin and crispy French crepes with this recipe.

Store: you can cook all the crepes then store them in the fridge, on a plate covered with plastic wrap. It stores well up to 2 days.

Filling ideas: jam, chocolate spread, honey, maple syrup, apple compote, fruits, nut butters, whipped cream, ice cream, nuts, coconut and more!
