These easy pumpkin crepes are soft, golden, and filled with the best fall flavors. The pumpkin puree in the batter makes them an easy seasonal twist on classic crepes, perfect for breakfast, brunch or a fall dessert.
3tablespoonsvegetable oil or melted butter, plus more for the pan
3tablespoonsgranulated sugar
½teaspooncinnamon
¼teaspoonnutmeg
¼teaspoonsalt
250grams (1 cup) pumpkin puree
150 grams (1¼ cups)all-purpose flour
300ml (1¼ cups) warm milk
Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk eggs, oil, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Add pumpkin puree and whisk again.
Add the flour and whisk well until there is no lumps. Slowly pour in half of the milk, whisking constantly. Add the remaining milk and whisk until you have thin, pourable batter. If the batter is too thick, add about ¼ cup more milk. Let the batter rest for about 10 minutes.
Brush the non-stick skillet with a thin layer or oil or butter. Heat it well over medium heat. Scoop about half a ladle of batter and pour it into the pan. Lift and tilt the pan as you pour, swirling the batter to form a thin circle. Cook it over medium heat for 1 minutes or until the edges slightly brown and are easy to lift. Flip the crepe with a thin crepes spatula, carefully (hot!) using hands if needed and cook it on other side for 1 more minute. You can also flip it mid-air.
Repeat with the rest of the batter, stacking cooked crepes on a plate. This recipe makes about 8-10 8-inch crepes.
Notes
The prepared crepes batter can be stores in the fridge for up to 24 hours. When the crepes cool down, store them in an air-tight container or on a plate tightly covered with plastic wrap in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. If you want to make them less sweet, use only 2 tablespoons of sugar.
