• Heat an 8 or 9 inch frying pan over medium heat. (Careful to not get it too hot!).
• Spray with pan spray or very lightly coat inside of pan with olive oil. (If it smokes, the pan is too hot.).
• Pour 1/4 to 1/3 cup of batter into pan and quickly tilt pan all around to cover all of bottom of the pan.
• Batter should be a thin layer on the bottom of the pan.
• Cook until top is no longer wet, and underside is golden brown.
• No need to turn the crepe over. (But if crepe should begin to get too dark on the bottom, quickly turn it and smooth it with the spatula and cook for just a few more seconds, then remove. Be sure to lower the heat if this happens.).
• Serve filled with fresh berries, mashed and lightly sugared -- or your favorite dessert crepe filling.
• Top with your choice of whipped toppings.
