Gluten-Free Crepes Recipe – Forks Over Knives

After faculty I spent a yr in France as a fille au pair, residing with a French household, taking good care of their youngsters, and experiencing French tradition. I discovered so much about French cooking, together with the way to make crepes. The important thing component is a really skinny batter, which is analogous to the Swedish model of huge skinny pancakes. Each are sometimes made with an egg-based batter. The model I make right now with a mix of chickpea and tapioca flours is profitable in each reaching the traditional taste and cheap sturdiness. (They don’t break whenever you flip them!) Throughout my time in France I bought a crepe batter spreader, which is used to unfold the batter across the pan, making an excellent crepe. That is simple to purchase on-line, but when you do not have one you may as well choose up the pan and tilt it round after pouring on the batter. 

For a special-occasion dessert or brunch, high crepes with vegan chocolate chips and recent strawberry slices. For an on a regular basis recipe, skip the chocolate and use no matter fruits you’ve gotten readily available; berries, peach slices, banana, and kiwifruit additionally work nicely. 

Extra Topping Concepts: For a savory vegan crepe, attempt topping with plant-based nut cheese, greens, and toasted walnuts or pecans, or use it as a burrito-style wrap. For teenagers, attempt rolling them up with plant-based yogurt and a bit maple syrup, or slice a banana lengthwise, drizzle it with lemon juice, and roll it up in a crepe, like a “banana canine.” Leftover crepes additionally make nice wraps for peanut butter and jelly or hummus and avocado.
