🇫🇷 France recipe

Crepes

Crepes are the elegant, paper-thin French pancakes that can be filled with anything from simple lemon and sugar to rich ham and cheese. The batter is effortless to make, requiring only a brief rest to let the flour hydrate and the bubbles settle, producing crepes so thin you can nearly see through them.
