Nutella Crepes Recipe (Ready in 65 Min)

Chocolate hazelnut spread and sweetened whipped cream come together in this vegetarian — 65 minutes, 7 steps, and the kind of result worth repeating. Scroll down for the ingredient checklist, a serving scaler and unit converter, and the method broken into 7 steps.

You'll mainly reach for pan and blender. At medium difficulty across 7 steps, it's manageable with a little attention. As written, it's meat-free.

How to make it

In a blender or large bowl combine the flour, eggs, sugar, milk, water, vanilla, melted butter and a pinch of salt, then blend or whisk until the batter is completely smooth and has the consistency of thin cream.
Let the batter rest at room temperature for at least 20 minutes, which relaxes the flour and gives more tender crepes; stir gently before using if it has separated.
Heat a non-stick or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly wipe it with a little butter on a paper towel.
Pour about 60 ml of batter into the centre of the pan and immediately swirl the pan so the batter spreads into a thin even circle.
Cook for about 1 to 2 minutes until the edges lift and the underside is golden, then flip and cook the second side for another 30 to 60 seconds; repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the finished crepes.
While each crepe is still warm, spread about 2 tablespoons of the chocolate hazelnut spread evenly over the surface so it softens slightly.
Fold each crepe into quarters or roll it up, then serve topped with a spoonful of sweetened whipped cream and any extra spread drizzled over the top.
