Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1.25 cups Milk
• 2 pieces Large eggs
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 8 slices Thinly sliced deli ham
• 1 cup Shredded cheese (e.g., Gruyere, Swiss, or Cheddar)
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
• 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray or butter (for greasing the pan)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, eggs, melted butter, and salt until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.

Step 2

Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease with non-stick cooking spray or a small amount of butter.

Step 3

Pour 1/4 cup of the crepe batter into the pan and quickly tilt the pan in a circular motion to evenly spread the batter into a thin layer.

Step 4

Cook the crepe for about 1-2 minutes, or until the edges begin to lift and the bottom is lightly golden. Flip the crepe with a spatula and cook for another 30-60 seconds on the other side. Remove from the pan and set aside on a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Step 5

Once all the crepes are cooked, return one crepe to the skillet over low heat. Place 2 slices of ham and 2-3 tablespoons of shredded cheese onto one-half of the crepe.

Step 6

Fold the crepe in half over the filling, then fold it again to form a triangle or envelope shape. Cook for 1 minute on each side, or until the cheese is melted and the crepe is heated through.

Step 7

Repeat with the remaining crepes, ham, and cheese.

Step 8

Serve warm, garnished with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
