- Make sure the crepes are thin and evenly cooked. This will help them to fold easily and prevent them from breaking.
- Don't overfill the crepes. Too much filling will make them difficult to fold and may cause them to break.
- If you are using a non-stick pan, you may not need to add any oil or butter. However, if you are using a regular pan, you will need to grease it lightly.
- Be careful when flipping the crepes. They are delicate and can easily tear.
- Serve the crepes immediately or keep them warm in a low oven until ready to serve.
