Ingredients
  

Crêpe Batter
  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 3 eggs large
  • 1.5 cups whole milk
  • 0.5 cup water
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
Assembly
  • 1 cup chocolate hazelnut spread or melted chocolate
  • 2 tbsp powdered sugar for dusting
  • 2 tbsp chocolate sauce optional for drizzle

Equipment

  • Non-stick skillet or crepe pan
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Whisk or Blender
  • Spatula

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, and salt.
  2. Create a well in the center and add eggs, milk, water, melted butter, and vanilla.
  3. Whisk gradually from the center outwards until the batter is smooth. Alternatively, blend all ingredients for 20 seconds.
  4. Cover and let the batter rest at room temperature for 30 minutes to relax the gluten.
  5. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter.
  6. Pour approx. 1/4 cup of batter into the pan, swirling immediately to coat the bottom evenly.
  7. Cook for 1-2 minutes until edges lift and bottom is golden. Flip and cook the other side for 30 seconds.
  8. Remove from pan. Spread chocolate filling down the center and roll the crêpe.
  9. Repeat with remaining batter. Drizzle with extra chocolate and dust with powdered sugar before serving.

Notes

Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for the smoothest batter.
