In a large measuring cup or blender add eggs, milk, flour, sugar, and salt. Blend or whisk until smooth.
Mix in the melted butter.
Cover and allow to rest in the fridge for at least 25 minutes.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and melt ½ tablespoon of unsalted butter on the pan.
Pour ¼ cup batter into the center of the pan. Swirl the pan, tilting to distribute the batter all the way to the edges.
Cook the first side for 60 seconds until lightly browned.
Gently slide a spatula under the edges of the crêpe to flip.
Cook for an additional 60 seconds until cooked through and just slightly browned.
Repeat with remaining batter, adding more butter to the pan as needed.
To serve, add 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 1 tablespoon powdered sugar onto half of each crêpe. Fold into quarters and stack. Serve with whipped cream or eat as is.
