- 1. Insert the Stirring Paddle. Add ¼ cup butter, cut into tablespoons. Secure the Cooking Lid with Steam Cap in place. The cooking time is set for 3 minutes at 190°F on Speed 1.

- 4. Put 3 large eggs into liquid measuring cup with one teaspoon of vanilla. The cooking time is set for 3 minutes at 85°F on speed 6. Pour in egg mixture once started.
- 5. Leave the batter to rest in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
- 6. Before using batter, whisk to re-blend and pour through a fine mesh strainer to remove any possible lumps.
- 7. Set an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat with ½ teaspoon of butter.
- 8. Once pan is hot and butter has melted, add a scant ¼ cup of batter to the pan, moving the batter around very quickly to make a thin coating on the bottom of the pan.
- 9. Cook the crêpe for 1½ to 2 minutes, until the edges just start to brown, and then carefully flip by hand, taking the edge closest to you and carefully flipping toward the back of the pan.
- 10. Finish the other side for an additional minute. Continue cooking crêpes until the batter is all used.
