Crêpe-making Tips: Rest batter to let the gluten relax for more tender crêpes. Overnight resting is ideal. Bring batter up to room temperature before cooking Only brush pan with oil once before the first crêpe. Silicone Basting Brush is ideal. Try lager beer instead of water. The bubbly carbonation and yeast adds airiness and flavour to your batter. Crêpes freeze beautifully, so make ahead for brunch, dinner, or after-school roll-ups You can make and refrigerate batter 24 hours ahead
