Thin, tender crepes filled with a simple homemade strawberry sauce make this recipe perfect for brunch, dessert, or anytime you want something a little special.

Strawberry crepes are one of those dishes that just feel special, even though they're made with very simple ingredients.
If crepes have ever felt intimidating, this recipe is a great place to start. The batter comes together quickly, the crepes cook fast, and the strawberry sauce is made right on the stovetop with minimal effort. Whether you're planning a relaxed weekend brunch, a breakfast-for-dinner situation, or a simple dessert, these strawberry crepes fit the occasion without feeling overdone.
They're also wonderfully flexible. You can serve them simply folded with sauce on top, or dress them up with powdered sugar, whipped cream, or a scoop of ice cream for dessert. No matter how you serve them, this is one of those recipes that feels a little indulgent - in the best possible way.
How To make the crepes - Step by step
Step #1: Add ingredients in the order listed, beating together eggs and flour with a whisk or in a mixer.

Step #2: Slowly add water until the mixture is smooth. Add in sugar and salt and then mix in the melted butter, ensuring that batter is as smooth as possible.

Step #3: Heat skillet over medium low heat and spray lightly with cooking spray. Pour out a small amount of batter and spread it around with a wooden spoon or spatula. You want the crepes to be thin!

Step #4: Lightly cook on each side. The crepe is ready to flip when the top starts to cook (similar to a pancake), and a spatula can slide under the crepe easily.
This recipe will make between 6-10 crepes depending on the size.
To make the strawberry sauce
Step #1: Combine all ingredients in a saucepan. Cooking time will vary depending on type of strawberries used (fresh or frozen).

Step #2: Cook the sauce up on medium heat, and crush the strawberries as they begin to soften, breaking them up into smaller pieces. You could also chop the strawberries beforehand, but I prefer the crushed strawberries because it gets the juices incorporated with the sugar and water for that delicious jammy effect.
Step #3: As the strawberry sauce starts to thicken, you'll want to turn it down to low and continue to stir on and off while you are making all your crepes.
Prepare the crepes by folding them as shown in the photo and serve with strawberry sauce. (Or you could put the strawberry sauce in the Strawberry Crepes before folding.)
Quick Tips & Variations
Substitute jam for the strawberry sauce. For a quicker treat, you can skip making the strawberry sauce and use a storebought or homemade strawberry jam.
Swap the fruit. You can use this as a base recipe for just about any flavor. The same technique for the sauce will work just as well with blueberries, raspberries, or even cherries. (Or try my cherry crepes!)
Toppings Ideas. I love the crepes simple with just strawberry sauce, but you can also get fancy with your favorite toppings. Powdered sugar, toasted nuts, shredded coconut, and even chocolate chips are all great choices.

sounds good! it is almost time to start planting here, last frost is usually around the 20th of April but this year being so crazy who can tell. We had below freezing temps about 2 weeks ago and then it was still in the mid-30's at night several times last week - hopefully that is past us now. I no longer have strawberry plants they all died off a couple years ago.

This is the first time making one of your recipes, and it was a simple, 15-minute breakfast dish. Although I spent 2 hours making it because of technical difficulties thanks for your nice guidance.

Crepes can be difficult the first time. I know I had problems the first time I ever made them. I was seriously over-thinking it.
