Equipment

1 8-inch nonstick pan

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour 120g
3/4 cup cottage cheese, any fat content 170g
2 large eggs 100g
1/2 cup + 2 tbsp water 141g
2 tbsp neutral oil, plus more for greasing the pan 28g
2 tbsp granulated sugar 12g
1 tsp vanilla extract
kosher salt

Instructions

Add ingredients to a high-powered blender and blend for 30-60 seconds, or until smooth and combined.
Heat a medium (around 8") nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once the pan is hot, add a small pat of butter or a little oil and swirl to coat the pan.
Add about 1/3 cup of batter at a time, quickly swirling to coat the entire surface of the pan. Cook 1-2 minutes, or until the edges look dry, the bottom is golden, and the crepe easily releases from the pan. Flip and cook for another minute and enjoy hot! Make sure to re-grease the pan in between every crepe for the best browning and to prevent sticking.

Notes

Omit the sugar and vanilla if you'd like to use these crepes for a savory application.
