  1. Combine milk, flour, eggs, sugar and salt in blender. Blend until smooth, occasionally scraping down sides of blender, about 2 minutes.

  11. Place 3 more pear slices on crepe above first 3 slices. Fold crepe in half over pears, forming triangular shape. Repeat with 5 crepes and pear slices.
  12. Brush crepes with some of cooking liquid from pears.
  13. Broil crepes just until heated through and golden, watching closely to avoid burning, about 1 1/2 minutes.
