Step 1

Add all ingredients in the order listed to the blender and blend until smooth.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl mix eggs, flour, 1 cup of buttermilk, baking soda, oil, sugar and salt with a whisk. It's important to incorporate liquid gradually to avoid lumps. When the mixture is smooth and lump free, add remaining buttermilk.

Step 3

The consistency of the batter should be the same as of heavy cream. Let stand for 20 minutes. You should see small bubbles on the surface of your batter.

Step 4

Preheat your non-stick frying pan on medium heat and grease it with an odourless oil. ( I usually put some oil on a paper towel and rub the frying pan with it to ensure even coating.)

Step 5

With a ladle or a measuring cup pour 1/2 cup of batter in the pan and tilt the pan slightly so batter runs to the edges forming a thin and round crepe. Cook it until the top of the crepe looks dry, then flip with a spatula and cook for 1 minute longer. (See photos in post for reference.)

Step 6

Remove to a platter and spread a little butter if desired. Repeat with the next crepe and continue cooking until all batter is used. Stack the crepes on top of each other.
