A crêpe or crepe (/kreɪp/ ⓘ KRAYP or /krɛp/ KREP, French: [kʁɛp] ⓘ, Quebec French: [kʁaɪ̯p] ⓘ) is a dish made from unleavened batter or dough that is cooked on a frying pan or a griddle. Crêpes are usually one of two varieties: sweet crêpes (crêpes sucrées) or savoury galettes (crêpes salées). They are often served with a wide variety of fillings such as cheese, fruit, vegetables, meats, and a variety of spreads. Crêpes can also be flambéed, such as in crêpes Suzette.
