Crepes are the ultimate blank canvas — thin, lacy, and golden at the edges. They invite endless possibilities: strawberries and cream for a breakfast indulgence, lemon and sugar for simplicity, or ham and cheese folded into a warm savory parcel. This recipe is forgiving and flexible, with a batter that comes together in minutes and benefits from resting overnight. Keep a stack in the fridge or freezer, ready to reheat and fill however the day calls.

about me

Screenshot 2025-09-12 at 9.52.59 AM.png

I’ll preface this by saying I’m not a chef — just someone who loves to cook and needed a place to gather and share the recipes that have shaped my kitchen.

 

From the classics that are always on rotation to the discoveries I’ve stumbled upon along the way, you’ll find them here. Each recipe is shared in its original form, with Anthology’s Notes added at the end to reflect the tweaks and touches that suit our table.

 

Over the years I’ve tried to make many recipes my own, so you’ll also see those variations woven in.

 

Basically: cook, taste, adjust, and repeat.
