Tips

Making perfect crepes outdoors is simple when you follow a few practical techniques. Resting the batter helps achieve the smooth, thin consistency needed for delicate crepes. Maintaining medium heat ensures even browning without burning. If you want consistently thin crepes, try using a crepe spatula or wooden spreader. Always grease the cooktop lightly between batches to prevent sticking, especially if you're making a large batch.

• Swirl or spread quickly for the thinnest results.
• Keep finished crepes warm under a clean towel.
• Adjust heat as needed if crepes cook too fast.

Variations

One of the best things about crepes is their versatility. With a single batter, you can create a full meal—from breakfast to dessert. Customize your crepes to match your mood, event, or flavor cravings. These variations work especially well on the Arteflame, where subtle smoky notes enhance both sweet and savory profiles.

• Nutella and strawberries
• Lemon zest with powdered sugar
• Ham and Swiss cheese
• Spinach and feta
• Banana caramel

Best pairings

Crepes pair beautifully with a variety of drinks and sides, making them a perfect addition to any outdoor meal. Whether you're planning a cozy morning cookout or an elegant evening dessert, the right pairing enhances the flavors and overall experience. Choose options based on whether you're serving sweet or savory fillings.

• Fresh berries or seasonal fruit
• Hot coffee or espresso
• Sparkling water with lemon
• Whipped cream or yogurt
