Apple Cinnamon Crepes | Healthy and Easy Recipe

Apple cinnamon crepes

These apple cinnamon crepes are perfect for the holiday season. The recipe is vegan, gluten-free and easy to make.

Ingredients

Dry ingredients:

• 1 cup oats ground into flour or oat flour (90 g) (*see recipe notes)


• 1/2 cup rice flour (80 g) (*see recipe notes)


• 2 tbsp coconut sugar or brown sugar


• 1 tbsp ground flax seeds or chia seeds


• 1 tsp baking powder

Wet ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cup plant-based milk (360 ml)


• 1 small banana (80 g) (*see recipe notes)


• 1 tbsp lemon juice or lime juice


• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract


• oil for frying

Apple Filling

• 3 apples, peeled, cored and chopped


• 3 tbsp coconut sugar or brown sugar


• 2 tbsp plant-based milk


• 1/2 tbsp lemon juice or lime juice


• 1 tsp cornstarch


• 1 tsp cinnamon

Instructions

1. To make the crepes simply put all dry ingredients into a bowl and stir with a whisk.


2. Process all wet ingredients (except the oil) in a food processor or blender.


3. Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and stir with a whisk to combine.


4. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes. Heat a little bit oil in a small/medium sized non-stick skillet (mine has an inside diameter of 5 1/2 inches).


5. Pour 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet, swirl the batter around to coat the pan evenly. Cook for about 2-4 minutes or until you can easily lift a side of the crepe (don't try to flip the crepe too early). After you flipped the crepe, cook for a further 1-2 minutes. Continue until you have no batter left.


6. To make the apple filling, put all ingredients in a skillet, stir and let simmer for a few minutes over low/medium heat.

Add a few tsp of filling on each crepe, roll it up and serve with a drizzle of caramel sauce (see recipe below). Enjoy!

Notes

• You can use regular oats or gluten-free oats.


• To make oat flour, simply process the oats in a blender or in an electric coffee/spice grinder.


• Instead of rice flour, you can use any other flour e.g. buckwheat flour, quinoa flour, even all-purpose flour (if not gluten-free). Do not use coconut flour though as it's very absorbent.


• You can use 80 g of applesauce instead of banana.
