How to prepare Spinach Crepes

To prepare the spinach crepes, first melt the butter (in the microwave or gently in a saucepan) and let it cool. Pour the baby spinach into a tall, narrow container. Add the milk 1, the now cool melted butter 2, and the eggs 3.

Add a pinch of salt 4 and blend everything with an immersion mixer 5 until you get a rather liquid mixture. Add the flour 6 and blend again until you have a smooth batter without lumps.

Grease a 9-inch crepe pan with a little butter and heat it well over the fire. Pour a ladle of the mixture into the center 7 and rotate the pan to cover the entire surface 7. Cook for about 3 minutes, then as soon as it detaches from the edges, flip the crepe 8 and cook for another minute. Transfer it to a plate and continue cooking the others, greasing the pan with a little butter each time. Your spinach crepes are ready 9.

Storage

Spinach crepes can be stored in the refrigerator for a couple of days. Alternatively, you can freeze them.

Tip

If you prefer to use regular spinach, we recommend blanching them for a few minutes and squeezing them well before adding them to the batter.
