Basic Crepes

4 eggs
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups all purpose flour
2 1/3 cups milk
1/4 cup oil

In large bowl, beat eggs and salt until foamy.

Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup; level off. Add flour and milk; beat well. Add oil, beat until well blended.

Heat crepe pan or 7 or 8-inch skillet over medium-high heat. A few drops of water sprinkled on the pan will sizzle and bounce when heat is just right.

Grease pan lightly. Pour about 3 tablespoons batter into pan, tilting pan to spread evenly. When crepe is light brown and set, turn to brown other side.

Remove from pan. Repeat with remaining batter to make about 25 crepes; stack cooked crepes. Fill crepes with desired filling or cool, wrap and refrigerate up to 2 days.
