Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Arrange wonton wrappers on parchment-lined baking sheet. Coat with non-stick cooking spray. Bake until golden, about 7 minutes.

Whisk milk with flour and oil until smooth. Place black bean sauce and Chinese hot sauce in two bowls; add 2 tsp (10 mL) water to each bowl; set aside.

Set medium non-stick pan over high heat; coat well with cooking spray. Pour a quarter of flour mixture into pan and spread into thin, even layer. Beat 1 egg in small bowl and pour over crêpe; spread into thin layer.
