Ingredients:
- 1 large egg
- 160 ml milk
- 65 grams all-purpose flour
- Pinch of salt
- Butter (for cooking)
- Nutella (as much as you like)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Batter:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg with a whisk until well beaten.
- Gradually add a portion of the milk and a portion of the flour, whisking to create a smooth batter. Continue alternating the remaining milk and flour until all are incorporated. This method helps to prevent lumps.
- Add a pinch of salt and whisk again until the batter is smooth and well combined.
- Cook the Crêpes:
- Heat a non-stick pan (about 28 cm in diameter) over medium-low heat.
- Add a small knob of butter to the pan and spread it evenly with a paper towel to remove any excess.
- Pour in two ladles of batter, swirling the pan to distribute the batter evenly across the surface.
- Cook for about 1-2 minutes, or until the edges begin to lift and the bottom is golden brown. Flip the crêpe and cook for another minute.
- Fill and Serve:
- While the crêpes are still warm, spread a generous amount of Nutella on one side.
- Fold or roll the crêpes and dust with powdered sugar if desired.
Enjoy!
