Ingredients
Scale
Crepe Batter
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
- Mix the Batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond flour, poppy seeds, lemon zest, almond milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until you achieve a smooth, lump-free batter.
- Preheat the Skillet: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with a small amount of butter to prevent sticking and to add flavor.
- Pour and Spread Batter: Pour a small amount of batter into the skillet, swirling the pan gently to evenly coat the bottom with a thin layer of batter.
- Cook the First Side: Cook the crepe for about 1 to 2 minutes until the edges start to lift and the underside is lightly golden.
- Flip and Cook the Other Side: Carefully flip the crepe with a spatula and cook for an additional minute until golden and cooked through.
- Repeat and Stack: Repeat this process with the remaining batter, stacking the cooked crepes on a plate to keep them warm and moist.
- Serve: Serve the crepes warm with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, a dollop of yogurt, or a drizzle of sugar-free syrup.
Notes
- Use a non-stick skillet for best results and easy flipping of the crepes.
- Make sure the skillet is properly greased but not overly so to ensure thin and crisp edges.
- The batter can be adjusted with a little more almond milk if it looks too thick for easy spreading.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator and reheat gently in a skillet or microwave.
- These crepes are naturally gluten-free and low in carbs, suitable for keto and diabetic diets.
