Basic Crêpes

1 c plain flour, sifted
1 egg, beaten
200ml milk
Pinch salt
Butter for cooking

Sift the flour and salt into a bowl. Make a well in the centre of the flour and then tip in the eggs. Using an electric whisk, or by hand, mix the eggs with the flour. Then pour in the milk gradually, as you mix, until you have a smooth batter.
Leave the batter to rest for up to an hour in the fridge, this makes the gluten (protein) relax and creates a lighter crêpe.
Turn the heat setting of your Breville® Crêpe Maker to 4 and wait until the plate is up to temperature.
Pour some of the mixture onto the Crêpe Maker and use the t-stick to spread across the plate. Cook for approximately 60 to 90 seconds until you can insert a spatula under the crêpe. The underneath should have started to turn golden. Carefully flip the crepe over and cook the other side for about 60 seconds.
Lift off the crêpe and put on a warm plate. Top with your favourite ingredients!
