Crepes are thin, pancake-like dishes originating from France. They are made from a simple batter of flour, eggs, milk, and a pinch of salt. Crepes can be served sweet or savory, making them versatile for various meals, from breakfast to dessert. Sweet crepes are often filled with ingredients like Nutella, fruits, or whipped cream, while savory crepes may include cheese, ham, or vegetables. They are typically cooked on a flat surface called a crepe pan and can be folded or rolled for easy eating.
