Coconut Flour Crepes




Coconut Flour Crepes


1/4 cup coconut flour
4 eggs
1/4 tsp vanilla flavoring
1 pinch nutmeg
1 T. honey
1/4 cup coconut milk


Mix ingredients and let sit for 5 minutes. In an oiled crepe pan, put 1/4 cup of batter in the middle, and let trickle around the pan until covering the bottom --after one side is browned, flip crepe over, and repeat. (Best to do this on medium heat) Fill with fruit, drizzle with honey, and enjoy. As you can see, we had ours with whipped cream, which is not Paleo. Coconut flour is a bit different to work with since it absorbs liquid very easily, and the batter may become crumbly and dry. I found it was perfect for crepes though.
This recipe makes 6 crepes.
