Ingredients
  

For the batter
  • 1 cup rolled oats Gives the crepe a mild, toasty flavor.
  • 1 cup milk Can use dairy or non-dairy.
  • 1 large egg Provides structure and richness.
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup For a hint of sweetness.
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract Enhances flavor and aroma.
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt Balances flavors.
For cooking
  • 1 tablespoon butter or oil For greasing the pan.
Optional toppings
  • fresh fruit, yogurt, nuts, chocolate chips Choose according to your preference.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Combine all ingredients (except butter/oil) in a blender and blend until smooth.
  2. Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the oats to absorb the liquid.
  3. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or crepe pan over medium heat.
Cooking
  1. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle and spread it thinly with the back of a spoon.
  2. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
  3. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  4. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.

Notes

For the first crepe, you might need to fine-tune the heat or how thinly you spread the batter. Keep a small amount of oil on hand to re-oil the pan between crepes.
