    | 1. Note: If you want to make regular crepes, not using whole wheat flour, use 3/4 cup milk, 2 tbs cold water, and substitute 3/4 cup white flour. | 2. In a small bowl, beat the eggs, milk, melted butter, and salt until well combined-about 20 seconds. | 3. Sift the flour into a medium size bowl or a 2 quart measuring cup, then add the liquid mixture, beating until well combined-about 1 minute. | 4. Or blend the eggs, milk, butter, and salt in an electric blender or food processor for 15 seconds; sprinkle in the flour and blend until smooth-about 30 seconds. | 5. Cover loosely with plastic wrap; let stand for at least 1 hour refrigerated or at room temperature. (The flour will swell to make a softer batter.) Will keep, refrigerated, for up to 4 hours. | 6. Brush butter on the bottom of a crepe pan or heavy 7-inch skillet. | 7. Set over moderate heat for about 30 seconds or until a drop of batter sizzles. | 8. Stir the batter well, pour 2 tablespoonfuls into the skillet, and quickly tip it back and forth so that the batter evenly coats the bottom. | 9. Cook until the crepe edges are golden brown-about 1 minute. | 10. Slide a spatula under the crepe, flip it over, and cook for about 30 seconds. | 11. Transfer to a warm plate. | 12. Repeat with the remaining batter, rebuttering the skillet when necessary. | 13. *At this point the crepes can be cooled to room temperature, separated by sheets of wax paper, and stored. | 14. Refrigerate, wrapped tightly with plastic wrap, for up to 24 hours. | 15. Freeze, wrapped with aluminum foil and labeled, for up to 1 month at 0°F. | 16. Serve with your own favorite crepe filling or try Walnut Crepes with Mocha Sauce or Cinnamon Crepes with Caramel Sauce and Pecans. | 17. Enjoy! | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
