Ingredients

1 1/4 cups milk
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
3 tbsp salted butter (optional)
1/8 tsp salt
1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley or other herb of choice
10 oz ham
1/4 cup salted butter (optional)
12 large eggs
1/2 cup milk
3/4 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp garlic powder
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste (optional)
5 oz shredded swiss cheese

Steps

Whisk the flour, 1 cup milk, 2 eggs, salt, and parsley until smooth, then rest the batter for 10 minutes.
Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a small skillet over medium heat, then whisk it into the batter.
Cook thin crepes in a lightly buttered 8-inch skillet for about 1 minute per side, making 6 crepes.
Melt the remaining butter in the skillet, cook the ham for 3 minutes, and transfer it to a plate.
Whisk the 12 eggs, remaining milk, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, then scramble them over medium-low heat until firm and 160 F.
Fill each crepe with egg, ham, and Swiss cheese, fold it closed, and warm for 2 minutes until the cheese softens.
