In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, milk, eggs, melted butter, and salt until smooth. Let the batter rest for 15–20 minutes.
Heat an 8-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet, swirling to coat the bottom evenly. Cook for 1–2 minutes until the edges lift, then flip and cook for another 30 seconds. Repeat with the remaining batter to make about 8 crepes. Set crepes aside.
In a large skillet, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add chopped shallot and garlic, cooking until softened, about 2–3 minutes.
Add shrimp and scallops to the skillet and cook until they are opaque and just cooked through, about 3–4 minutes. Gently fold in the crab meat and cook for an additional minute. Remove seafood mixture from the heat and season with salt and pepper to taste.
In a medium saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Stir in 2 tablespoons of flour and cook for 1–2 minutes, stirring constantly.
Slowly whisk in 1 1/2 cups of milk and the heavy cream, cooking until the mixture thickens — about 5 minutes.
Stir in grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley, then season with salt and pepper to taste. Reserve half the sauce for topping.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
To assemble, place a spoonful of the seafood mixture onto each crepe and roll it up tightly. Arrange the filled crepes seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
Pour the reserved cheese sauce over the crepes and bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbling and the crepes are heated through.
Garnish with additional parsley, if desired, and serve hot.
