Crepes

Ingredients
1 cup flour
1tsp caster sugar
240ml milk
2 eggs

Directions
Place ingredients in a food processor or blender with a pinch of salt.

Blend until smooth, then strain into a jug. Cover and set aside to rest for 30 minutes at room temperature.

Dip a piece of paper towel in melted butter and use to brush base of a 16cm non-stick crepe pan or frypan over medium heat. When hot, pour in just enough batter to cover the base. Tilt pan so batter covers base in a thin film and pour any excess back into the jug.

Cook crepe for about 1 minute until underside is golden, then use a metal spatula to flip. Cook other side for just under a minute until golden
Transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm. Repeat for remaining crepe mixture, stacking crepes on the plate as you go.
