Homemade Crepe Tips
All the exact steps for this post are in the recipe card below. First, I wanted to share some really helpful tips and additional info about them.
Mix The Flour And Eggs Together First
Before you add any of the other ingredients, make sure the eggs are completely mixed into the flour. This will help your crepes have the smoothest texture possible.
Milk Substitute For Crepes
Whether you are lactose intolerant or you just don’t have any milk, you can use any type of milk in this recipe. Replace dairy milk with unsweetened almond milk, oat milk, or even coconut milk.
Keep The Nutella Crepes Thin
When you pour the batter into your non-stick frying pan, remember to keep it really thin. If you try to make it too thick, it will look and feel like a pancake. This part should only take about 2 minutes per side to cook.
Use Your Favorite Spread
I preferred to use Nutella because that reminded me of my vacation in Europe, but there are lots of other things you can spread on crepes instead.
Nutella substitutes for crepes could be:
- Jams
- Butter
- Peanut or nut butter
- Syrup
- Powdered Sugar
- Fresh Fruit
How To Store Crepes
Do not store Nutella crepes if you already added the filling. It won’t stay fresh and it will change the texture. The best way to store the crepes is to store them in a resealable bag without the filling. Keep them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Here it is! Enjoy this recipe for Nutella Crepes!
