Spinach and salmon crepes—I mean, really, who doesn’t love them? They’re perfect for a quick dinner or a last-minute get-together. Seriously good. These savory crepes whip up fast without any butter. Light and easy. And listen, there's no need to wait for the batter to rest. Just blend it all for a smooth mix and cook them up quickly. And french-style crepes are known for being thin, tender, and versatile. This version? It even has spinach in the batter for an extra boost. Plus, the bright green color is fun. They turn out soft and flexible, ready to roll up with your favorite fillings.

And here's the thing, most people go for smoked salmon and spreadable cheese, but you can totally get creative with other stuff. When friends come over, everyone makes their own—adding smoked salmon, veggies, whatever cheeses. Which is great. It’s what makes these spinach and salmon crepes a hit for aperitifs or casual dinners. You get that creamy, smoky combo from the salmon and cheese, but there’s room to experiment.

The crepes are light enough not to weigh you down. For sure. Yet filling, thanks to the fish protein. Though this started as a French idea, the method—with no butter and everything blended—has a simple, modern vibe. Perfect for busy nights. Whether you call them smoked salmon crepes, spinach stuffed crepes, or just homemade crespelle, they bring people together. Sharing food that's easy to make but feels special. Really, really fun. Everyone loves to chat about their versions, making it a fun, interactive dish that turns any dinner into a cozy experience.

INGREDIENTS

For 10 spinach crepes (with a diameter of 9 inches): Eggs 4; Spinach 7 cups (200 g); Type 00 flour 2 cups (250 g); Whole milk 1.875 cups (450 g); Extra virgin olive oil 2 spoonfuls; Fine salt to taste

Preparation

How to prepare Spinach crepes with salmon

To prepare the spinach crepes with salmon, first break the eggs into a bowl, then add the salt 1, the oil 2, and the milk 3. Mix well with a hand whisk.

Add the fresh spinach, washed and well squeezed 4, and blend with an immersion blender 5 until you obtain a smooth and homogeneous mixture. At this point, incorporate the flour 6.

Mix again with the whisk to fully absorb it 7. Now heat a non-stick pan with a diameter of 9 inches and grease it with oil, then pour a ladle of batter into the center 8 and move the pan to distribute it evenly 9.

Cook over medium-low heat until the edges begin to peel away 10, then flip the crepe and cook on the other side for a total of about 3 minutes 11. Remove the crepe from the pan and stack them one by one on a plate 12; with these quantities, you will obtain about 10 spinach crepes.

After cooking all the crepes, proceed with the filling: spread the fresh cheese over the entire surface 13, then lay a couple of slices of smoked salmon 14. First, fold the sides inward 15.

Once the sides are folded, roll the crepe 16 to seal the filling 17. Proceed in this way to fill all the others. Your spinach crepes with salmon are ready to be enjoyed 18!
