Description
Spiderweb Crepes Treat is a festive Halloween breakfast made with a simple crepe batter piped into delicate webs using a squeeze bottle. The webs cook quickly with crisp edges and tender centers, perfect for chocolate drizzle, maple syrup, or Nutella. Fun for kids and striking for parties, this recipe makes spooky mornings playful and memorable.
Ingredients
All-purpose flour – 1 cup (120 g)
Milk (whole or 2%) – 1 1/4 cups (295 ml)
Large eggs – 3
Melted butter or neutral oil – 2 tbsp
Fine salt – 1/4 tsp
Sugar (optional sweet version) – 1–2 tbsp
Cocoa powder (optional for web color) – 1–2 tbsp
Instructions
1. Blend flour, milk, eggs, salt, sugar, and melted butter until smooth.
2. Let the batter rest 15 minutes to relax gluten and reduce bubbles.
3. Pour batter into a squeeze bottle with 2–3 mm tip; thin with milk if too thick.
4. Heat a lightly greased nonstick pan over medium heat.
5. Pipe a center dot, add 6–8 spokes, and connect with curved arcs to form a web.
6. Cook 60–90 seconds until edges dry and release easily.
7. Flip carefully and cook 15–30 seconds more.
8. Serve warm with chocolate sauce, maple syrup, Nutella, or fruit.
Notes
Use a fine-tip squeeze bottle for thin, crisp lines.
Rest the batter to prevent foam and gaps.
Keep heat moderate; too hot burns edges before centers set.
Wipe the pan lightly with oil between crepes for sharp edges.
For chocolate webs, whisk cocoa into part of the batter.
Cool crepes in a single layer before stacking with parchment if storing.
