Crepes Beat eggs and egg whites until frothy and light in color. Add milk, water, salt, and sifted flour. Mix on low until combined, then increase speed and beat until smooth and lump-free. The batter should be thin. Heat a small non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly brush with oil. Pour 2–3 tablespoons of batter into the pan and quickly swirl to coat the bottom. Cook until the top is no longer wet and the bottom is lightly browned. Cook only one side. Repeat with remaining batter. To Assemble Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter the bottom of a baking dish. Spread about 2 tablespoons of filling on the unbrowned side of each crepe, leaving a small border. Roll up, cut in half, and place in the dish. Brush tops with remaining butter. Cover and bake for 1 hour. Remove foil for the last 10 minutes if desired. Serve warm with extra dill, sour cream, or dill sauce.
