Instructions

Prepare the batter:
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, melted butter, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Rest the batter:
Let the batter rest for 10–15 minutes to help create tender crepes.
Heat the pan:
Heat a lightly greased nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Cook the crepes:
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet and quickly swirl the pan to spread the batter into a thin layer.
Flip the crepe:
Cook for 1–2 minutes until the edges lift and the bottom becomes lightly golden. Flip and cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Repeat:
Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter.
Make the filling:
In a bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
Assemble the crepes:
Place a crepe on a plate, spread whipped cream in the center, and add sliced strawberries.
Fold and serve:
Fold or roll the crepe and top with powdered sugar, extra strawberries, and whipped cream if desired. Serve immediately

Notes

Letting the batter rest helps create smoother and more flexible crepes.Use a nonstick pan or crepe pan for the best results.If the batter becomes to thick, add a tablespoon of milk to thin it.Crepes should be very thin, so swirl the batter quickly after pouring it into the pan.Fresh strawberries provide the best flavor and texture.
