Ingredients
Crepes
- 150 g wholewheat flour
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp coconut sugar
- ¼ tsp salt
- 600 ml plant milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp rapeseed oil
Cinnamon Apples
- 4 large apples peeled and chopped
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- 2 tbsp lemon juice optional
- 1 tbsp coconut sugar optional
Instructions
- Pour in the wet ingredients and whisk together until a smooth batter is achieved.
- Pour into a jug (this makes the whole cooking process more simple, efficient and less messy).
- If using a non-stick pan, oil is not necessary to fry – if not, then add ½ tsp oil to a frying pan.
- Pour in around 100 ml of the batter, or enough to thinly cover the entire surface of the pan.
- Swirl liquid batter around the pan to spread evenly and thinly – be quick before the batter starts to cook in the hot pan.
- Cook for roughly 2 minutes when the edges start to slightly curl then flip immediately and cook another 1-2 minutes on the other side.
- For the cinnamon apples, add all ingredients to a pan and simmer for 10-15 minutes – depending on if you like smushy or al dente.
- Place 2-3 tbsp of apples on each crepe, roll up and serve.
Notes
- Coconut sugar can be replaced with an alternative sweetener such as brown sugar or stevia
- Rice flour can be replaced with coconut flour to keep the buns flourless
- Cornstarch can be replaced with other starch powders such as tapioca starch or potato starch
- These crepes can be served with any topping or sprinkle, whether sweet or savoury
- Sugar can be omitted from this recipe
- Add a scoop of protein powder for a protein boost
- Coconut oil can be used instead of rapeseed oil
- Additional oil can be used to cook unless using a non-stick frying pan
