Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients:
- 1 cup gluten free flour
Wet Ingredients:
- 2 cups almond milk
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Combine 1 cup of gluten free flour with 2 cups of almond milk in your mixing bowl, stirring until you reach a smooth consistency without lumps.
- Fold in 2 tablespoons of coconut oil, 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, making sure your batter is fully combined.
- Set your non-stick skillet on the stovetop at medium heat and let it warm up for about 1 minute.
- Pour roughly 1/4 cup of batter into your hot pan and immediately tilt the skillet in circular motions so the mixture spreads into a thin, even layer across the surface.
- Let your crepe cook for 2 to 3 minutes at medium heat until the edges begin to lift away from the pan easily.
- Using a spatula, carefully flip your crepe over and cook the other side for 1 to 2 minutes at medium heat until it sets.
- Transfer your finished crepe to a plate and repeat the process with your remaining batter, pouring about 1/4 cup at a time into your skillet.
Notes
- Getting your batter smooth matters because lumps prevent thin, even crepes, so take time to whisk it well before cooking.
- Keep your skillet heat at medium since too high will brown the crepes too fast and make them tough and brittle.
- A thin spreading technique gives you delicate crepes, so pour just enough batter and use the back of your ladle to spread it quickly before it sets.
- These crepes work great with fresh berries, coconut cream, or nut butter as toppings, and the batter refrigerates well for up to two days if you need to prep ahead.
- For a dairy-free option that’s creamier, swap almond milk for oat milk, which adds richness without changing the texture.
