Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese 120 g, full-fat or reduced-fat
  • 1/2 cup milk 120 g, dairy works best but other options work, too
  • 1 tbsp water plus more if needed
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 60 g
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 2 tsp oil or melted butter
  • 1.5 tsp sugar optional
  • oil for cooking

Instructions

  • Blend the base ingredients. Add the eggs, cottage cheese, milk, salt, sugar (if using), and oil or melted butter to a blender. Blend until completely smooth, with no visible curds.

  • Add the flour. Add the flour to the blender and blend again just until combined. The batter should be smooth and fairly thin.
    1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • Rest the batter. Let the batter sit for about 5 minutes. This helps the flour hydrate and improves the texture.
  • Adjust consistency if needed. After resting, check the batter. It should be thin and pourable. If it feels too thick, stir in a little water.
    1 tbsp water
  • Heat the pan. Place a nonstick pan over medium heat and lightly coat it with oil.

  • Pour and swirl. Lift the pan off the heat, start pouring the batter, and swirl at the same time so it spreads into a thin, even layer. This makes it easier to control how much batter you need.
  • Cook the first side. Cook for 60–90 seconds, until the top looks mostly dry, small bubbles appear, and some areas start to release from the pan. The edges should look lightly set with a bit of browning.
  • Flip and finish. Loosen the edges, then carefully flip. Cook for another 40–60 seconds until lightly browned on the second side. Move the pan occasionally so it doesn’t stick.
  • Repeat. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, lightly oiling the pan as needed between crepes.
