- Cover the crepe batter with plastic wrap and leave in the fridge to rest overnight or if limited for time 1 hour.
- Heat a large frying pan or crepe pan over medium heat. Grease the pan with melted butter and pour in about a ¼ cup of crepe batter. Use a crepe tool or tip the pan around to spread the batter evenly.

Notes
The Crepes will keep in the fridge for a few days, just keep them covered to stop them drying out.
There are so many different options for fillings - savoury and sweet!
