If you’re looking for a new breakfast recipe for lazy weekend mornings, we have just the thing for you. These nutritious buckwheat and coconut crepes are the most versatile recipe around and are guaranteed to keep everyone happy. They are gluten free, dairy free, egg free and refined sugar free.
2 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar (or lemon juice)
2 tablespoons whole flaxseed
1 can coconut milk (400 ml)
½ cup water
Pinch salt
1 teaspoon vanilla (omit for savoury)
½ teaspoon of ground cinnamon (omit for savoury)
1 tablespoon of maple syrup (omit for savoury)
Coconut oil for cooking
Directions
SOAKING & ACTIVATING BUCKWHEAT GROATS
It is recommended to soak and activate buckwheat before blending. Combine the buckwheat groats, 4 cups of water and apple cider vinegar (or lemon juice) in a ceramic or glass bowl and set aside for 6-8 hours or overnight.
THE CREPE BATTER
After the soak, carefully pour the soaking water out and drain the buckwheat into a mesh strainer.
Tap the strainer to remove the excess water then tip the grouts into the blender jug.
Add all the remaining ingredients then blend on ‘smoothie’ mode for 60 seconds or until the batter is smooth and creamy.
Heat a cast iron or heavy based pan to a low steady heat.
Add half a teaspoon of coconut oil.
Pour one third of a cup of batter into the heated pan and guide it to the edges by lifting and rotating the pan. A thin batter is best. If it’s too thick – add a little more water.
The edges of the crepes become crisp when they are ready. Flip them with a spatula and cook the other side.
Pile the crepes on a plate then enjoy warm.
The wraps are best eaten on the day they are cooked but they may be frozen for several months - they snap apart easily and thaw in moments.
