Equipment

  • 1 blender
  • 1 crepe pan or nonstick skillet

Ingredients

  • 1 cup sourdough starter or discard
  • 1 cup milk
  • 4 tbsp melted butter
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Place all ingredients into the blender
  • Puree until smooth
  • Allow to rest 10 minutes (Now would be a great time to choose your crêpe fillings.)
  • Heat nonstick pan with light coating of butter over medium-high heat
  • Pour in 1/4 cup of batter at a time, and tilt pan to swirl the batter evenly along the bottom of the pan.
  • Cook until lightly browned, approximately 1.5 minutes. Flip and cook until other side is lightly browned.
  • Transfer to a plate, and repeat with remaining batter.
  • These are delicious as they are, with a light smearing of jam, or you can fill them with anything your heart desires.
