Crepe Maker Vitrified Iron Le Creuset

The Le Creuset cast iron crepe pan is a delight for anyone who loves homemade crepes – thin, golden and with just the right hint of toasted flavour. Truly, it’s one of those pans that make you understand why cast iron remains king in the kitchen. It distributes heat evenly across the entire surface, edge to edge – and with crepes, that makes all the difference. The browning it achieves is simply unmatched.

Although it's called a “crepe pan”, in truth it’s an incredibly versatile frying pan. You can use it for pancakes, as a griddle for meat and vegetables, and even for baking. Yes – since it’s made of cast iron and gets incredibly hot, it’s perfect for oven use as well – great for thin pizzas, savoury tarts with puff pastry or shortcrust, giving every dough a wonderfully crisp texture thanks to its consistent heat.

And like everything Le Creuset makes, it’s beautiful, robust and designed to last a lifetime. No strange coatings, no nonsense – just good old enamelled cast iron.

What is the Le Creuset crepe pan ideal for?

Although it’s called a crepe pan, it’s so much more. This low, wide pan is perfect for many things:

• Making homemade crepes, sweet or savoury, with even cooking and no cold spots.
• Cooking pancakes, blinis or fried eggs.
• As a griddle for meat, vegetables, prawns, bacon… the low edge gives you great control.
• As an oven base for thin pizzas, flatbreads, savoury tarts with puff pastry or shortcrust. It holds intense heat and gives pastry a superb crunch.

A multi-purpose frying pan with the soul of a crepe pan. Or a crepe pan with the soul of everything else.
