Gluten-Free Crepes with Oat Flour

Ingredients (makes five 8-inch crepes)

  • 50g (1/2 cup) Hearthy oat flour

  • 1-2 tsp granulated sugar

  • pinch of salt

  • 1 egg, room temperature

  • 1/2 cup milk, room temperature

  • 1 tbsp butter, creamed/softened

Recipe

  1. In a large bowl, mix together the dry ingredients.

  2. In a separate, smaller, bowl beat the egg and then whisk in the milk.

  3. Slowly stir this mixture into the dry ingredients. The batter should be quite liquidy.

  4. Whisk in the butter.

  5. Put an 8 or 10 inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. When the pan is hot, brush it with a thin layer of butter or oil.

  6. Lift the pan and pour 1/4 cup of batter into the top of the skillet (furthest from you).

  7. Immediately begin to tilt and swirl the pan to spread the batter so it covers the surface of the skillet.

  8. Optional: sprinkle brown sugar crumbles while the first side cooks.

  9. Cook for 30-60 seconds (depends on your stove/pan combo).

  10. Loosen the edges of the crepe with a rubber spatula and check for golden brown specks. When it’s ready, flip it carefully.

  11. To serve, fold in half twice to form a fan/triangle shape. Top with fresh fruit, berry compote, caramelized bananas, maple syrup, whipped cream, nutella, chocolate, whatever you’d like!

Enjoy!
