These savory crepes are perfect for creating delicious manicotti or cannelloni dishes. Light, tender, and easy to make, they serve as a versatile base for your favorite fillings.
Combine the flour, milk, eggs, salt, and melted butter in a mixing bowl, whisking until smooth.
Ensure the batter is lump-free by whisking thoroughly or using a blender.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat until hot.
Test the skillet's heat by sprinkling a few drops of water; they should sizzle and evaporate quickly.
Pour a small amount of batter into the skillet, swirling to coat the bottom evenly.
Use just enough batter to create a thin layer for a delicate crepe.
Cook until the edges begin to lift and the bottom is lightly golden, then flip and cook the other side briefly.
Use a spatula to gently lift the edges before flipping to ensure the crepe is ready.
Repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the cooked crepes on a plate.
Keep the crepes covered with a clean towel to retain warmth and softness.
Fill the crepes with your desired filling, roll them up, and bake with sauce if desired.
Experiment with different fillings like ricotta and spinach or ground meat with marinara sauce.
