Can I keep crepe batter in the fridge?

Refrigerate the Crepe Batter Your batter should rest in the fridge for at least one hour. You can even make your crepe batter the night before and let it rest overnight in the fridge. When you're ready to make crepes, give the batter a good stir as the flour will have settled to the bottom of the bowl.
