1-2 eggs

30 ml (2 Tbsp) sunflower oil

METHOD

Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix until smooth. If the batter thickens upon standing, add 15 ml (1 Tbsp) at a time while mixing until the correct consistency has been reached.

Heat the Baccarat Crepe Pan on medium heat and spray with non-stick spray. Pour about 80 ml (1/2 cup) of batter into the pan while swirling around to evenly cover the base of the pan.

Cook for a minute or two, and flip over and cook for another 30 seconds – 1 minute or until cooked and slightly browned. Continue making crepes until all batter is used.
