In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, sugar, and salt.
In another bowl, beat the eggs and add in the milk and vanilla extract, whisking until combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking continuously to prevent lumps.
Stir in the melted butter until the crepe batter is smooth. Let the batter rest for at least 10 minutes.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with additional melted butter or oil.
Pour about 1/4 cup of crepe batter into the skillet, swirling to evenly coat the bottom.
Cook for about 1-2 minutes or until the crepe starts to lift at the edges, then flip and cook for another 30 seconds.
Transfer cooked crepe onto a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the crepes as you go.
Allow crepes to cool slightly. Using a spatula, spread a layer of vanilla pastry cream over the surface of the first crepe.
Place another crepe on top and repeat the layering process until all the crepes are used.
Top the crepe cake with fresh berries or fruit, and a dusting of powdered sugar.
Refrigerate the crepe cake for at least 1 hour to make slicing easier. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
