Ingredients

Dry Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (90 g) oats ground into flour or oat flour
  • ½ cup (80 g) rice flour
  • 4 tbsp (32 g) cornstarch or arrowroot flour
  • 2 tbsp coconut sugar or brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp flax seeds ground or chia seeds
  • 1 tsp baking powder

Wet Ingredients:

  • 1 ½ cups (360 ml) plant-based milk (canned lite coconut milk recommended)
  • 1 small (80 g) banana
  • ½ tbsp lemon juice or lime juice
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • Oil for frying

Apple Filling:

  • 3 apples peeled, cored, and chopped
  • 3 tbsp coconut sugar or brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp plant-based milk
  • ½ tbsp lemon juice or lime juice
  • ½ tsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Mix dry ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together oats flour, rice flour, cornstarch, sugar, ground flax or chia seeds, and baking powder until well combined.
  2. Blend wet ingredients: In a food processor or blender, combine plant-based milk, banana, lemon or lime juice, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth.
  3. Combine wet and dry: Pour the blended wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk thoroughly to form a smooth batter. Let the batter rest for a few minutes to thicken.
  4. Cook crepes: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly oil it. Pour 1/4 cup batter into the skillet and spread evenly with the back of a ladle. Cook for 2–4 minutes until edges lift easily. Flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes. If the batter thickens too much during cooking, thin it with up to 50 ml additional plant milk. Repeat until all batter is used.
  5. Prepare apple filling: Add all apple filling ingredients to a skillet or saucepan. Stir to combine off heat, then bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce to low and simmer for a few minutes until the mixture thickens and apples soften.
  6. Assemble crepes: Spoon a few teaspoons of the warm apple filling onto each crepe, roll it up, and optionally drizzle with caramel sauce for extra flavor. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use oat flour or grind oats finely for the crepe batter.
  • Plant-based milk such as canned lite coconut milk adds richness.
  • Banana in the batter adds natural sweetness and moisture.
  • Add extra plant milk if the batter becomes too thick during cooking.
  • Serve with caramel sauce for a delicious touch.
