Initially, crepes were made with buckwheat flour, and over time, wheat flour became more commonly used. Crepes soon became a staple of French cuisine, enjoyed in various forms from sweet to savory, and as a symbol of celebration during Candlemas, a Christian holiday.

Ingredients
Instructions
- Place all the ingredients into a food blender and give them a whirl until blended. You can do this with a whisk if you do not have a food blender.
- Use a 1/4 cup ladle or measuring cup to spoon the batter into a pre-heated nonstick pan.
- Swirl the batter around the pan immediately after pouring it into the skillet and continue cooking on medium heat until the surface has bubbles and is no longer glossy.
- Flip the crepe and cook the other side for around 10 seconds before placing it onto your cooked stack of crepes.
Notes
Flour: I love using einkorn flour for this recipe due to its many health benefits and flavor, but all-purpose or pastry flour will work great!
