Ingredients

  • 3 Tbs. Sugar (Substitute Coconut Sugar for a sugar free version)
  • 2 Cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 1/4 Cups Coconut Milk
  • 2 Tbs. Coconut Oil or Avocado Oil
  • 2 tsp. Pure Vanilla Extract

Add your flour, sugar, oil, vanilla extract, and coconut milk to your blender or food processor. Process for about thirty seconds. Scrape down the sides of your container and process again until smooth.

Spray pan with desired oil and heat your crepe pan or skillet to medium low heat.

Next test your batter by pouring a tablespoon into heated pan. Tilt your pan in a circular motion. Batter should move around your pan freely. Discard test batter.

Add enough batter to your pan to thinly cover the bottom. Cook the first side until tiny bubbles form. Crepe is ready to flip after about one minute.

To flip your crepe, run a thin spatula around the edges of crepe to make sure it’s not sticking. Lift crepe just enough to grasp with fingers, and in one motion flip your crepe over (be careful not to burn yourself).

The second side of your crepe should cook for about one minute. It is done when light brown begins to form on bottom of crepe.

Remove from pan and repeat until all crepe batter has been used.

Spread desired filling into crepe, fold, and serve immediately.
