Gluten Free Crepes
From: Vered @ healthyrecipesblogs.com/2018/01/16/gluten-free-crepes/
A basic recipe for tasty gluten free crepes, made with coconut flour. They are soft and neutral, so you can fill them with sweet or savory fillings.
I experimented for a long time with different ratios of eggs to milk to coconut flour, and this is the optimal ratio – it produces gluten free crepes that are thin enough to actually be considered crepes (a few of my trials were thick like pancakes), yet sturdy enough for me to flip them.
Prep and Cool time: 15 mins
Cook time: 15 mins
Total time: 30 mins
Yield: 6 crepes
Ingredients
3 large eggs
½ cup plus 2 tablespoons whole milk
¼ cup (28 grams) coconut flour
Cooking oil for pan (I use avocado oil spray)
Instructions
Break the eggs into a medium bowl and lightly beat them.
Add the milk and whisk to incorporate.
Add the coconut flour and whisk patiently until very smooth.
This will take a few minutes.
Allow the batter to thicken for 1-2 minutes, then whisk again.
Heat a small, 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Spray with cooking spray.
Pour a scant ⅓ cup of the batter into the skillet.
Swirl to spread.
Cook until the top is bubbly and the bottom is set, 2-3 minutes.
Using a wide spatula, or two regular spatulas, as shown in the video, very carefully flip the crepe - it's not as sturdy as a wheat flour crepe so work carefully.
Cook the second side briefly - it will be done in 30 seconds to 1 minute, then slide the cooked crepe onto a plate.
Spray the skillet again and continue cooking crepes until all the batter is gone.
Pile the cooked crepes on top of each other on a plate and cover them loosely with foil to keep them warm.
Fill the crepes with your choice of filling, or simply sprinkle them with sugar or powdered sugar (or a low carb alternative), and serve.
Notes
