Ingredients
1 ⅔cupsflour
1teaspoonsalt
1cupmilk
1 ½cupswater
5eggs
1 ½tablespoonsbrandy
3tablespoonsvegetable oil
1stick of butter for the pan
Instructions
Place all the ingredients except the stick of butter in a food processor by batches if necessary. If by batches, whisk together in a large bowl after processing. Pour into a bowl and let rest for 1 hour at room temperature or overnight in the refrigerator.
For 10” Crêpes:
Using a stick of butter, swipe the pan and ladle 2 ounces of batter into a hot 10” non stick skillet. Rotate the pan to make a complete circle, filling the pan evenly with the batter. Fry on one side until the edge is browned, indicating it is ready to turn over.
Flip and brown on the other. Stack between waxed paper with second side up. Cool to room temperature.
Use immediately or freeze. If using from the frozen state, thaw completely and make sure they are room temperature.
