3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

2 eggs

1/2 cup beer

Orange butter

Zest of 1 orange

For orange butter, in food processor, pulse orange zest and sugar. Add butter and orange juice and blend until smooth. Shape into log and chill until firm.

For crêpes, whisk all ingredients together, except beer, until smooth. Let batter rest for 30 minutes. Stir in beer. Heat an 8-inch crêpe pan or non-stick pan over medium heat and grease lightly. Spoon 2 tablespoons of batter into centre of pan and swirl to coat pan. Place back on heat and let cook for about 2 minutes. Flip and cook 30 seconds. Slide crêpe onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and continue until all batter is used. Serve crêpes warm with orange butter. Serves 4.
