In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, and sugar, and whisk together.

Crack in 2 eggs and add 1/2 cup of milk, setting the rest aside.

Whisk the mixture until smooth; it should be thick.

Gradually add the remaining milk, about 1/2 cup at a time, whisking until smooth after each addition.

Add in 2 tablespoons of melted butter and 1 teaspoon of vanilla if making sweet crepes.

Cover the batter with plastic wrap, ensuring it touches the batter, and refrigerate for 4 to 60 minutes.

Prepare a 1/3 cup measuring cup and heat a pan on medium-high heat.

Brush a little butter in the pan with a silicone brush.

Pour 1/3 cup of batter on one side of the pan and swirl to create a thin layer.

Cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute until the batter sets and the sides start to release from the pan.

Gently flip the crepe and cook for another 30 seconds before removing it from the pan.
