• 80ml of cream with 35% fat
• Butter to grease the pan

Preparation:

1. We put the flour, sugar and salt in a bowl and mix. Add the eggs one at a time, beating until incorporated before adding the second. Finally we add the milk little by little, and finally the cream. It should be a smooth mixture without lumps.

2. We let it rest, covered with a cloth, in a warm place.

3. We grease our 26 or 28cm Unique frying pan and put it on the heat. Once hot, we add a measure of the dough, spread it over the bottom of the pan, moving it with a small turn of the wrist. Don't add too much dough, the crêpes have to be very thin. When bubbles start to come out of the dough, carefully turn it over and let it brown on the other side. We take out and repeat the operation with all the dough. We grease whenever necessary.
