Time 45m

Yield 8 crepes, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup buckwheat flour
1/2 cup rice flour (use a finely milled flour)
1 tablespoon coconut oil (can use other oil of choice)
1 1/4 cups soymilk (can use other milk if wished)
2 teaspoons arrowroot or 2 teaspoons tapioca starch
1 pinch salt
oil, for pan frying

Steps:

  • Place the buckwheat flour, rice flour, arrowroot/tapioca and a pinch of salt on a bowl. Make a 'well' in the centre of the flour.
  • Add the coconut oil and a little of the milk, beating well with a wooden spoon.
  • Gradually beat in the remaining milk, drawing the flour in from the sides to make a smooth batter.
  • Heat a little oil in an 18cm/7 inch non-stick frying pan. Pour in just enough batter to coat the base of the pan thinly. Swirl the pan to spread the mixture thinly across the base of the pan.
  • Cook until golden brown, flip and cook the other side.
  • Place cooked crepes onto a plate and using baking paper between cooked crepes to stop them from sticking together.

I love the nutty flavor of these crepes. It's a nice change from traditional crepes made with white flour.

I was surprised at how easy these crepes were to make. I'm not a very experienced cook, but I was able to make them without any problems.

These crepes are a great way to use up leftover buckwheat flour. I always have some on hand, and it's nice to have a recipe that I can use it in.

I've made these crepes several times now and they always turn out perfectly. They're so versatile and can be filled with anything you like. I especially love them with Nutella and bananas.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my crepes turned out dry and crumbly. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

These crepes were a great success! I made them for a brunch party and everyone loved them. They were light and fluffy, and the buckwheat flavor was a nice change from traditional crepes.

I had some trouble getting the crepes to flip without breaking. I think I needed to use a little more oil in the pan. Other than that, they were delicious and I would definitely make them again.

These buckwheat crepes were a bit too thick for my taste. I think I would have preferred them to be thinner and more delicate. However, the flavor was good and they were still enjoyable.

I love that this recipe is vegan and gluten-free. It's so hard to find good recipes that cater to both dietary restrictions. The crepes were delicious and I will definitely be making them again.

I've been looking for a good gluten-free crepe recipe for a while, and this one is perfect! The crepes were light and fluffy, and they held together well. I filled them with sautéed mushrooms and cheese, and they were heavenly.
