- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ tbsp granulated sugar
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 2 eggs

Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, and salt. Add eggs, vanilla extract, milk, and water; mix until smooth. Let the batter rest for about 30 minutes.
- Heat a non-stick skillet on medium heat and melt a small amount of unsalted butter. Pour in batter to cover the pan lightly, cooking for about 1–2 minutes per side until golden brown. Stack cooked crepes on a plate.
