Carbon steel crêpe pan - perfect for thin, crispy pancakes
This Mineral B crêpe pan from de Buyer is made from 100% natural carbon steel (iron) with a diameter of 26 cm. It is designed with low sides that make it easy to flip and slide pancakes directly onto the plate. The pan's large, flat surface is ideal for both thin French crêpes and thicker brunch pancakes.
Ideal for cooks who appreciate natural materials, traditional craftsmanship, and cookware that improves with age.
Natural non-stick without chemicals
The carbon steel in this crêpe pan develops natural non-stick properties through the seasoning process. The more you use the pan, the better its non-stick performance becomes – with no artificial coatings whatsoever. From the factory, it is protected with organic beeswax, which both prevents rust and helps with the initial seasoning. This makes the pan a healthier alternative to pans with synthetic non-stick coatings, as no chemicals are released during cooking.
Outstanding heat distribution delivers perfect results
The carbon steel's exceptional heat conductivity ensures that the pan quickly reaches the right temperature and maintains it steadily. This results in evenly cooked pancakes with crispy edges and a beautiful golden colour. The solid riveted iron handle in the classic French "à la Française" shape provides a secure grip during cooking. The pan can be used on all heat sources, including induction, and only gets better with each use.
Technical specifications and care
The crêpe pan has a diameter of 26 cm, a total length of 480 mm, and a height of 13 mm. It weighs 1.3 kg, providing a good balance between manoeuvrability and stability. Care is straightforward but important: the pan is not dishwasher safe; instead, rinse with hot water, dry immediately, and apply a light coat of oil after use. This simple routine ensures the pan lasts for generations.
