Crepes Too Thick
Your crepes are thick and bready because the batter was too dense. Thin it and spread quickly.

The fix
Tap a step to check it off.
- 1 whisk in 2 tablespoons milk to thin the batter
- 2 pour less batter and tilt the pan immediately
- 3 cook only 45 to 60 seconds per side
If it's still wrong
- roll with fruit and serve like a pancake
- cut into strips and saute in butter
Prevent next time
- let the batter rest so it loosens naturally
- use a ladle to measure smaller portions
Notes
Why this works
Thin batter flows into a delicate layer. Less batter and quick spreading prevent a thick, pancake-like crepe.
