Salton Crepe Maker

The unit features a base that plugs into the wall to heat the cooking surface. Once the ready light indicates it has reached the proper temperature, you lift the crepe maker off the base to dip it into the batter and cook, allowing for complete freedom of movement.

While it is specifically designed for thin batters like crepes, blintzes, and tortillas, you can experiment with other thin flatbreads. It is not suitable for thicker pancake batters or foods that require a traditional griddle surface.

The non-stick coating is effective for easy release and cleanup, but it requires gentle care. To maintain the surface, always use the included spatula or other silicone or wooden tools, and avoid metal utensils that could scratch the coating.

The adjustable dial lets you fine-tune the heat to suit different batter types, which is helpful since some recipes brown faster than others. However, the primary function of the automatic temperature control is to prevent overheating and maintain a consistent cooking surface.

Because the plates are fixed, you cannot submerge the unit in water. Simply wipe the non-stick surface with a damp cloth or sponge once it has completely cooled; the batter dish is typically dishwasher safe, but check the manual for specific care instructions.
