If the crepe batter has thickened in the refrigerator, thin it
with water to the consistency of whipping cream. Brush a 7-inch
skillet (preferably non stick) with a thin film of olive oil. Place
the skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add about 3 tablespoons
of crepe batter and swirl to coat the pan. Cook until the crepe is
lightly golden, about 1 minute; then turn it over and cook the second
side for 30 seconds. Continue with remaining batter, stacking crepes
between waxed paper.
