I looked for a crepe recipe and yours looked the best. I like your ideas for serving it as well. I had it once about 40 years ago at a restaurant and they mixed a thick creamy whip cream with ( homemade) cranberry sauce. I’ve never forgotten how good that was. I’m trying it tonight. Ty for your easy recipe.

Other flavourings that you can add (from a French and cooking enthusiast):
- orange blossom extract, very popular in Southern France/the Mediterranean countries
- cinnamon
- coffee extract
- almond or hazelnut milk instead of regular milk
- cocoa powder for a chocolatey taste and a darker crepe

I always sift the batter one more time at the end to make sure there are no lumps. Really makes a difference in crepes 👍
