Ingredients

4 large eggs
2 cups milk
1 1/3 cups all purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 tablespoon sugar (Leave out if making savory crepes)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (Leave out if making savory crepes)

Instructions

Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Refrigerate 1-2 hours.
Heat non-stick skillet or non-stick crepe pan over medium-high heat and brush with butter or spray with cooking spray.
Pour or ladle about 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan, tilting to coat the surface of the pan with the batter.
Cook 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom of the crepe lifts easily off the bottom of the pan, then flip the crepe and cook on the other side until golden brown and edges are slightly crispy.
Remove crepe from pan and continue to cook the rest of the crepes until the batter is gone (about 10-12 crepes).
