Ingredients
Chocolate Crepes
- 1⅓ cup rolled oats gluten free if needed
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1¾ cups water
- pinch salt
Chocolate Sauce
- 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup
- 2-3 tablespoons non-dairy milk
Filling Suggestions
- frozen fruit of choice - warmed on the stove my favorite is frozen cherries!
- fresh berries
- sliced banana
- natural peanut butter
Instructions
- First, decide which fruit fillings you would like to enjoy in your crepes. If using frozen fruit, (I especially love frozen cherries with mine!) put it in a saucepan and place over low to medium heat to defrost. Stir occasionally and keep an eye on it until it's warmed through.
- In a blender, add all the crepe ingredients and process until smooth and no chunks are left behind. The mixture will be thin, set it to the side to rest for 5-10 minutes while you prep the chocolate sauce.1⅓ cup rolled oats, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, 2 tablespoons cocoa powder, 1¾ cups water, pinch salt
- In a small bowl, make the chocolate sauce. Whisk together the cocoa powder, maple syrup and 1 tablespoon of non-dairy milk until combined. Mixture will be thick, add 1-2 more tablespoons of milk to get to your desired consistency.3 tablespoons cocoa powder, 3 tablespoons maple syrup, 2-3 tablespoons non-dairy milk
- Using an electric griddle or non-stick pan over low heat, start cooking your crepes. Add ¼ cup of the batter to the skillet and quickly use the back of the measuring cup or a ladle to smooth out the batter into a very thin circle.
- Cook for 2 minutes, until the crepe has darkened and is mostly cooked and then flip, cooking 1 more minute. Remove from the griddle and set onto a plate. Repeat until all the batter is gone. (Important Note- if the skillet gets too hot, reduce the heat back to low between batches. If the skillet is too hot, it will make it very hard to smooth out the batter.)
- To assemble, get creative!! You can choose to roll the crepes stuffed with the filling of your choice or fold them and add the fruit to the top. Drizzle with the chocolate sauce and enjoy!!
