Ingredients
Method
- Add rolled oats, milk, egg, maple syrup, vanilla bean paste, and salt to a blender.
- Blend on high until the batter is completely smooth and the oats are fully broken down, scraping the sides if needed.
- Let the batter rest at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes to allow the oats to hydrate and slightly thicken.
- Heat a nonstick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly brush with butter or oil.
- Stir the batter, then pour 1/4 cup into the center of the hot pan, quickly tilting and swirling to spread it into a thin, even circle.
- Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the top looks dry, the edges turn lightly golden, and the bottom shows light browning when you lift an edge.
- Flip carefully with a thin spatula and cook the second side for about 1 minute, until set and lightly golden in spots.
- Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep it warm and flexible.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, lightly greasing the pan as needed, stacking the crepes as you go.
- Serve warm with your choice of fruit, yogurt, nuts, chocolate chips, and a drizzle of maple syrup.
Notes
- If the batter seems too thick after resting, stir in 1 to 2 tablespoons of milk to loosen it before cooking.
- Cooked crepes can be refrigerated for up to 3 days; stack with parchment between each crepe and reheat in a dry skillet.
- For freezing, cool completely, stack with parchment, wrap tightly, and freeze for up to 2 months, then reheat from frozen in a warm skillet.
- Keep the heat at medium so the edges turn golden without burning the maple syrup in the batter.
