Add eggs, almond milk and maple syrup (only for sweet crepes) to a (high speed) blender. Alternatively, combine them in a mixing bowl and whisk by hand.
Blend for only a couple of seconds until or well combined.
Next add flour and salt and quickly blend again until there are no remaining lumps and a smooth batter forms.
Cover the batter with a kitchen towel and let it rest for at least 30 minutes (or up to 1 day in the fridge). Stir for a few seconds before using the batter.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Coat the pan evenly with oil (a cookings pray could help).
Measure out between ¼ and ⅓ cup of the batter (depending on the size of your pan). Pour or spoon in a thin layer of the crepe batter into the pan .
Tilt the pan immediately to evenly spread the batter. Cook first side for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, until you can see little bubbles forming. Then flip with a thin spatula and cook second side for a couple of seconds more or until golden brown.
Repeat the process with the remaining batter!
Stack the cooked crepes and serve with fillings/ toppings of choice!

Notes
Storage & Freezing: Leftover crepes can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Can also be frozen, thaw overnight and heat them up in the microwave.
Measure out portions: Even if your crepe batter is thin- if you end up using too much, the crepe will be thick again. I would recommend using anywhere from ¼ cup to ⅓ cup depending on how big your pan is! Once you’ve found your perfect portion size stick to it! That way, you’ll end up with the same results!
Crepe Pan: Using a crepe pan makes the flipping easier (because of its low edges) but not a must!
Don’t flip too early! If after say around 30 seconds, the crepe still feels very wobbly, wait for another few seconds until you flip it!
The first crepes: might not turn out as perfectly as it takes some time for the pan to be evenly heated
