How to Make Crepe Pizza
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).
- Make the batter. In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, milk, oil, flour, and a pinch of salt. Whisk or blend until completely smooth, with no lumps.
- Prep your pan. Line a baking sheet with greased parchment paper, making sure the edges are covered so nothing sticks.
- Pour and spread. Pour the batter onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it evenly with a spoon or offset spatula, right to the edges.
- Layer your toppings. Arrange the tomato slices over the batter, then sprinkle generously with cheddar cheese, scallions, red and green bell peppers, and corn — or any toppings you prefer.
- Bake. Place in the preheated oven and bake until the base is set and cooked through and the cheese is melted and golden. This typically takes around 30 minutes, but keep an eye on it, since ovens vary.
- Slice and serve. Let it cool for a minute or two, then slice into squares or wedges like a traditional pizza.
Storage
- Refrigerator: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Reheat: Warm slices in the oven or a toaster oven at 180°C (350°F) for a few minutes to re-crisp the base — a microwave works too, but the texture will be softer.
- Freezer: Once fully cooled, wrap individual slices tightly and freeze for up to 1 month. Thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make the batter ahead of time? Yes. You can prepare the batter up to a day in advance and keep it covered in the refrigerator. Give it a quick whisk before pouring, since the flour may settle.
Can I use a different milk? Any milk works, including plant-based options like oat or almond milk, though the texture may vary slightly.
Why is it called a “crepe pizza”? The base is made from a thin, pourable batter similar to a crepe, rather than traditional yeasted pizza dough — which is what makes this recipe so quick.
Can I make this gluten-free? Yes, a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend can be substituted for the all-purpose flour with good results.
What other toppings work well? This recipe is very flexible — try mushrooms, olives, cooked sausage or ham, spinach, or your favorite pizza sauce in place of the sliced tomatoes.
Do I need a special pan? No — a standard baking sheet lined with parchment paper works perfectly.
