I love crepes, they were one of the things that made me sad when I had to give up gluten. The light and fluffy crepes filled with sweet fruit or something savory, oh man that bummed me out. I said goodbye lingonberry crepes at ihop and thought, yep yet another food was gone from my quickly diminishing menu of acceptable foods.

As time went on and gluten free foods and baking options improved I was delighted to find that I could actually make my own version of my favorite breakfast food and they taste great. Even my gluten friends love them.

We made this last night as part of our meal prep and my goodness it was delicious. Both my son and I were making wow noises with each bite. Ironically we just kind of threw it together with what we had on hand. So it was quite the surprise that it turned out so amazing.

  1. Mix all the ingredients in a bowl and blend or whisk until smooth. Once done let it rest for 30 minutes to 1 hour in the fridge .
  2. Spray you pan with cooking spray.
  3. Next ladle your batter onto your pan and use the back of the ladle to thin the batter in a circular motion.
  4. These will cook fairly fast, watch the edges for the golden color. Check your crepes fairly often so they don’t burn but depending on your heat source it usually takes just a few minutes to cook on each side. so flip when they’re ready and then pile on the plate.
