Step-by-Step Instructions

1
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and melted butter. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and whisk until smooth. The batter should still be slightly lumpy.
2
Heat a small non-stick pan over medium heat. Pour a small amount of the batter into the pan and tilt the pan to evenly coat the bottom. Cook the crêpe for about 2 minutes, until the bottom is light brown. Loosen the crêpe with a spatula and flip it over. Cook for another minute, until the other side is lightly browned.
3
In a small saucepan, combine the orange zest, Grand Marnier liqueur, and orange juice. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 5 minutes, until the sauce has thickened slightly.
4
To assemble the dish, place a crêpe on a fine china plate and spoon a small amount of the orange butter sauce over the top. Flambé the sauce by pouring a small amount of Grand Marnier liqueur over the top and igniting it with a match. The sauce will flambé for about 30 seconds, until it is warm and caramelized.
