Method

  1. Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat and melt the butter. Continue cooking until the butter turns golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside, as the residual heat will further brown the butter. Aim for a golden brown color rather than a dark one before turning off the heat.

  2. In a medium bowl, gently whisk together the eggs, egg yolk, water, milk, and salt until well combined. Add the flour and whisk until the mixture becomes smooth. Gradually pour the browned butter into the mixture while whisking constantly. If needed, strain the mixture to remove any lumps.

  3. Use a paper towel to wipe the nonstick pan clean that was previously used for melting the butter. Place the pan back over medium heat. Using a 1/3-cup measure, scoop the batter and pour it into the center of the hot pan. With a rotating motion of your wrist, swirl the batter around and out to cover the edges of the pan, aiming for a thin crepe. Return the pan to the heat and cook for 2 minutes. Use a rubber spatula to lift the edge of the crepe and flip it over. Cook for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute on the other side, depending on desired level of golden coloring.

  4. Transfer the cooked crepe onto a plate and spread 1 tablespoon of Nutella (or more, according to preference) over it. Fold the crepe in half, and then fold
