Instructions
Place the crepe batter ingredients in a blender in the order listed: ½ cup lukewarm water, 1 cup milk (room temperature), 4 large eggs, 4 Tbsp melted unsalted butter, 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 Tbsp sugar, and a pinch of salt. Blend for about 1 minute, or until the batter is smooth and well combined.
Heat a good nonstick skillet over medium heat. Melt a small amount of the additional unsalted butter (the “plus more to sauté”) to lightly coat the pan.
Pour about 3 Tbsp of batter into the skillet and immediately tilt and swirl the pan so the batter spreads into a thin, even crepe. Cook the crepe until the bottom is golden, about 1 minute, then flip and cook the other side for about 15 seconds. Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, melting more butter in the skillet as needed between crepes.
While the crepes are cooking (or after), make the Greek yogurt filling: in the bowl of a mixer, cream together 6 oz cream cheese (room temperature) and 1/3 cup granulated sugar until smooth. Add 1 cup Greek yogurt and beat on medium–high speed with the whisk attachment (or an equivalent whisk) until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Set aside; refrigerate the filling if not using right away.
To assemble, spread a thin layer of the Greek yogurt cream over a crepe, then roll the crepe or fold it into quarters with the cream on the inside. Repeat with remaining crepes and filling.
Serve assembled crepes immediately. Any unused filling or unserved crepes should be refrigerated.
