Return pan to the burner and after about 15-20 seconds carefully work a spatula underneath your crepe and flip it over to the cook the other side. Cook for 15-20 seconds and remove to a warming dish. Continue brushing your pan with butter before each crêpe is made. Continue until all the batter is used.
