Perfect Vegan Gluten-Free Crêpes
Ingredients
1 cup oat flour*
1 cup brown rice flour
2 1⁄2 cups unsweetened plant-based milk
2 ripe spotty bananas, peeled
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
4 tablespoons raw cacao (optional for
making chocolate crêpes)
1 tablespoon date syrup (optional if
making chocolate crêpes)
*Blend gluten-free rolled oats in a blender to make the oat flour. 1 cup of rolled oats yields 1 cup of oat flour.
Instructions
1. Add all the ingredients to a blender. Blend until smooth and then set aside. You can make the batter ahead of time and leave it in the refrigerator overnight if needed. Just thin it out with extra plant-based milk when ready to cook.
2. Preheat an electric ceramic griddle to 325°F. I recommend using the Presto non-stick ceramic griddle. If using a non-stick pan, heat it up right before making the crêpes.
3. Pour about a 1⁄4 cup of the batter onto the griddle or pan. Tilt the griddle or pan around to swirl. Spread the batter as thinly and evenly as possible.
4. Cook for 1-2 minutes and then use a spatula to carefully flip over the crêpe. Then cook on the other side for approximately 1 minute. Remove the crêpe from the pan. Continue making crêpes with the rest of the batter.
5. Fill the crêpes with your choice of fruit. Roll them up and serve them warm with a drizzle of melted chocolate or peanut butter over the top. You can also fold them up and garnish them with fresh fruit.
6. You can refrigerate leftover crêpes in an airtight container for a day or two. You can also freeze the crêpes with a layer of parchment paper between each crêpe. Thaw them at room temperature and then reheat them before you serve.
Note: We often make half a batch without the cacao powder. Then we add half the cacao powder and half the date syrup to the second half of the batter so we have both vanilla and chocolate crêpes!
