👨‍🍳 Method

  1. 1
    Whisk the eggs, milk, water, melted butter and sugar with the salt in a bowl, add the gluten-free flour blend and mix to a smooth batter.

  2. 2
    Refrigerate the batter for 30 minutes.
    Refrigerator
    💡Resting in the fridge relaxes the gluten and gets rid of the bubbles: the crêpes come out thin and delicate, and don't tear.
  3. 3
    Heat a flat pan and grease lightly.

    💡A very thin layer of fat, with the excess wiped off with paper towel: too much fat gives spots and fried edges.
  4. 4
    Pour in a small ladle of batter and swirl the pan into a thin, even layer.

    💡The first crêpe almost always gets tossed: it tests the heat of the pan and the amount of batter.
  5. 5
    Fry about 1 minute, until the edges dry and brown lightly, flip and fry 20–30 more seconds. Repeat until the batter is used up.
