Ingredients
- ¾cup all-purpose flour
- ½teaspoon salt
- 1tablespoon sugar
- 3large eggs, lightly beaten
- 1cup milk
- 1tablespoon amaretto liqueur, or ¼ teaspoon almond extract and an additional tablespoon milk
- 3tablespoons melted butter
- Clarified butter for cooking the crepes
Preparation
- Step 1
Sift the flour and salt into a large bowl and stir in the sugar. Make a well in the center of the mixture and add the eggs. Using a fork, gradually incorporate the flour into the eggs. Stir in the milk, amaretto and melted butter, stirring until smooth. Set aside for 30 minutes.
- Step 2
Strain the batter through a fine sieve. Place a 7- or 8-inch crepe pan over medium heat. When hot, brush the pan with clarified butter. Pour slightly less than ¼ cup of the batter into the pan, tilting it to evenly cover the bottom. Cook until lightly browned, flip and cook the other side. Transfer the crepe to a plate lined with plastic wrap or waxed paper.
- Step 3
Continue until all the batter is used, placing the crepes between layers of paper towels. They will keep up to 3 days well wrapped in the refrigerator.
