Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the crepes
  • 1 cup rolled oats Key for structure and flavor
  • 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy) Can use almond or oat milk as alternatives
  • 1 large egg Adds richness to the crepes
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup For sweetness
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract Enhances flavor
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt Balances flavors
  • 1 tablespoon butter or oil For cooking the crepes
Optional toppings
  • fresh fruit (e.g., berries, banana slices) Enhances flavor and presentation
  • yogurt Pairs well with crepes
  • nuts Adds crunch
  • chocolate chips For a sweet touch

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Combine all ingredients (except butter or oil) in a blender and blend until smooth. The batter should be fairly thin and pourable.
  2. Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the oats to absorb the liquid, which helps improve texture.
Cooking
  1. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or crepe pan over medium heat. You can test if it’s ready by sprinkling a few drops of water; they should sizzle.
  2. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle, using the back of a spoon to spread it thinly. Aim for an even layer.
  3. Cook the crepe for 2-3 minutes until the edges look dry and the bottom is golden brown. Flip gently and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side.
  4. Remove from heat and repeat with the remaining batter, adding a bit more oil to the pan as needed.
  5. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.

Notes

Cooked crepes can be stored in the refrigerator for up to three days, separated with parchment paper. They can also be frozen.
