    Frequently Asked Questions

    Q: What is a crepe?

    A: A crepe is a thin French pancake that can be filled with a variety of delicious fillings. They can be sweet or savory and are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert!

    Q: How are crepes different from American pancakes?

    A: American pancakes are thicker and often fluffy due to the use of a leavening agent. Crepes, on the other hand, are thin and have no leavening agent, making them more versatile for fillings.

    Q: Can I make crepes ahead of time?

    A: Absolutely! You can make the crepe batter a day in advance and refrigerate it. The cooked crepes also keep well in the fridge for up to two days, or in the freezer for two months.

    Q: How do I flip a crepe without breaking it?

    A: Make sure the first side is fully cooked (it should look matte) before flipping. Loosen the edges with a spatula and then either flip it with the spatula or give it a quick toss if you’re feeling adventurous.

    Q: What’s the best way to reheat crepes?

    A: You can quickly reheat them in a skillet over low heat or give them a brief zap in the microwave.
