How To Make manicotti crepes

Step 2Lightly oil a small nonstick skillet and place over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup batter in hot skillet holding skillet above the heat and swirl the batter around in a circle to make the crepe. Once crepe is dry on the bottom but not browned. Flip crepe over and cook 30 seconds. Remove from pan and let it cool. Repeat until all batter is used up. Will make about 12 crepes.
