The three-line revision (the one that begins "Using a 1/4-cup measuring cup...") is clearer.

Why: it gives a specific tool and amount, replaces the vague "move the pan" with a precise motion ("tilt the pan in a circular motion"), and uses consistent, unambiguous wording for the cooking step. Suggestion: keep "Serve hot" as a final separate step.

Cleaner combined version you can use:
Using a 1/4-cup measuring cup, scoop the batter onto the griddle. Tilt the pan in a circular motion so the batter coats the surface evenly. Cook the crepe for two minutes, then turn and cook the other side for about two minutes. Serve hot.
