Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1.25 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract (optional, for sweet crepes)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, and salt. Mix well to distribute evenly.
In another bowl, whisk together the unsweetened almond milk, eggs, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract if using.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking continually to form a smooth batter. Ensure there are no lumps for a seamless crepe texture.
Once combined, set the crepe batter aside for at least 15 minutes to rest and allow the flour to absorb fully.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with a bit of coconut oil.
Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter into the center of the skillet. Immediately swirl the skillet in a circular motion to spread the batter evenly to the edges.
Cook the crepe for about 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and lightly brown. Flip the crepe using a spatula and cook the other side for an additional 1 minute.
Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate and repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more coconut oil to the pan if needed.
Serve the crepes warm with your favorite fillings, whether sweet like fruit preserves and nut butter or savory like sautéed vegetables and tofu scramble.
