Crepes with Melted Butter and Powdered Sugar

This takes me back to my childhood, spending the night at my girlfriend Angie’s house & waking up to her dad Bill making crepes served with melted butter and powdered sugar. They were so amazing!! Throughout my life, I have had crepes filled with all sorts of jams, jellies & lemon curd, but nothing tastes as good as the way Bill made them for me when I was a kid. Very simple but absolutely perfect. We like to pair this easy homemade crepe recipe with twisted bacon and crispy hash browns.
Crepes with Melted Butter and Powdered Sugar
Crepe Batter:
- 4 eggs
- 1â…“ cup milk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp melted butter
- 3 tbsp white sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp salt
Serving:
- Butter (for cooking and serving)
- Powder sugar (sifted)
How to Make Crepes with Melted Butter and Powdered Sugar:
Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Use an immersion blender or blender to blend the batter until smooth with no lumps.
Heat some butter in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Using a small ladle, spoon about 3-4 tablespoons of crepe batter into the hot pan. Tilt the pan clockwise so that the batter spreads evenly over the entire bottom of the small skillet.
Cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute; flip for 20 seconds. Remove from the pan. Side Note: Most people only cook one side, but I cook both.
Remove the crepe from the skillet and place it on a plate.
Spread a bit of butter onto the crepe and then sift powdered sugar over the butter.
Roll and place on another plate for serving, or eat while it’s hot. Enjoy.

I believe the recipe on the fridge says Craps. You may need to update the spelling for this recipe:)
