Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of milk, 1 cup of all-purpose flour, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Allow to rest for about 10 minutes.
  2. Cook the Crepes: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat, lightly greased. Ladle about 1/4 cup of batter, swirling to cover the bottom evenly, cooking for 1-2 minutes per side.
  3. Make the Filling: Scramble two eggs in a separate skillet, add spinach and cheddar, stir until spinach wilts and cheese melts (about 2-3 minutes).
  4. Assemble the Crepes: Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each crepe, fold sides over, and roll tightly.
  5. Serve and Garnish: Arrange crepes on a platter and consider adding fresh herbs or diced tomatoes for garnish.
