Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1.25 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 2 pieces large egg
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil (for greasing)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, almond milk, vanilla extract, and maple syrup until smooth.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking continuously to form a smooth batter. Be careful to avoid lumps.
Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to allow the flour to hydrate.
Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with coconut oil.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan and immediately swirl the pan to spread the batter into a thin, even layer.
Cook the crepe for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges begin to lift and the bottom is golden brown.
Carefully flip the crepe with a spatula and cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute on the other side.
Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate and repeat the process with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as needed.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, nut butter, or a drizzle of additional maple syrup.
