Crepes are a classic French dessert that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. Whether you fill them with sweet or savory ingredients, crepes are a delicious and versatile treat. In this article, we'll show you how to make Suzanne's crepes, a recipe that yields thin, delicate, and flavorful crepes.

*Ingredients:*

- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

- 2 1/2 teaspoons sugar

- 1/2 teaspoon salt

- 2 large eggs

- 1 1/2 cups milk

- 2 tablespoons butter, melted

- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

- Filling ingredients (see below)

*Instructions:*

1. *Make the crepe batter:* In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until smooth. The batter should be thin and free of lumps.

2. *Rest the batter:* Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes to allow the flour to absorb the liquid ingredients.

3. *Heat the crepe pan:* Heat a small non-stick pan or crepe pan over medium heat. Brush the pan with a small amount of butter or cooking spray.

4. *Pour the batter:* Pour a small amount of batter into the pan and tilt the pan to evenly coat the bottom.

5. *Cook the crepe:* Cook the crepe for 1-2 minutes, until the bottom is light brown. Loosen the crepe with a spatula and flip it over. Cook for another minute, until the other side is lightly browned.

6. *Repeat the process:* Repeat the process until all the batter is used up, making about 8-10 crepes.

*Filling Ideas:*

- Sweet fillings: Nutella, strawberry jam, whipped cream, or fresh fruit

- Savory fillings: Ham and cheese, spinach and feta, or chicken and mushroom

*Tips and Variations:*

- Use a high-quality non-stick pan or crepe pan to prevent the crepes from sticking.

- Don't overmix the batter, as this can create tough crepes.

- Experiment with different fillings and toppings to create unique flavor combinations.

- You can also add flavorings like cinnamon or lemon zest to the batter for extra flavor.
