Ingredients
  

For the Crepes
  • 1 cup Warm Water Hydration for the crepe batter; essential for a smooth texture.
  • 1 cup Milk Adds creaminess and richness; any dairy or non-dairy milk works fine.
  • 2 large Eggs Provide structure and moisture; vital for a fluffy crepe experience.
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter Enhances flavor and assists with cooking; oil can be substituted if needed.
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour The main component for the crepe base; a blend of half whole wheat is a healthier choice.
  • 1 tablespoon Sugar Balances flavors; try maple syrup for a hint of sweetness.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Enhances overall taste; sea salt or kosher salt can replace regular salt.
For the Filling
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon Mustard Adds a tangy depth of flavor; yellow mustard can substitute for a milder note.
  • 4 ounces Deli Ham Provides savory, protein-rich filling; cooked turkey, bacon, or sausage are great alternatives.
  • 2 large Scrambled Eggs The hearty protein source; tofu scramble works for a vegetarian option.
  • 1 cup Cheddar Cheese Melts beautifully, complementing the other ingredients; feel free to swap with Swiss or mozzarella.

Equipment

  • non-stick skillet
  • Spatula
  • Cooling Rack

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. In a blender, combine warm water, milk, eggs, melted butter, all-purpose flour, sugar, and salt. Blend on high until the batter is smooth and well combined, about 30 seconds. Once blended, let the batter rest for 15-30 minutes at room temperature to improve the texture.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a small pat of butter to grease the surface. Pour about 1/4 cup of crepe batter into the skillet, swirling it to cover the bottom evenly. Cook for about 1 minute until the crepe's edges turn golden and lift easily, then flip and cook the other side for another 30 seconds. Transfer cooked crepes to a cooling rack.
  3. In a non-stick pan, melt a little butter over medium heat. Crack the eggs into a bowl, whisk them until well combined, then pour into the pan. Stir gently with a spatula, cooking until the eggs are fluffy and slightly moist, around 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  4. Take a prepared crepe and lay it flat on your work surface. Spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard over the surface, then sprinkle with cheese, layer on the deli ham, and add a generous serving of scrambled eggs. Top with a bit more cheese before folding the crepe in half and then rolling it tightly to enclose the filling completely.
  5. In the same skillet used for cooking the crepes, melt a bit more butter over medium-low heat. Place the rolled crepes seam-side down in the skillet and sauté for about 2-3 minutes, turning to ensure they’re heated through and golden on all sides. Serve your Egg, Ham, and Cheese Crepes warm.
