Notes
- Oats: You can use regular oats or gluten-free oats. To make oat flour, simply process the oats in a blender or in an electric coffee/spice grinder.
- Rice flour: Instead of rice flour, you should be able to use buckwheat flour, quinoa flour, or even all-purpose flour (if not gluten-free). Do not use coconut flour though as it's very absorbent. Almond flour probably won't work either, but I never tried it.
- Cornstarch: Arrowroot flour should be fine too.
- Banana: You can use 80 g of applesauce instead of banana.
- Milk: If you use boxed almond milk, oat milk, or any other dairy-free milk that is low-fat, I would suggest adding 3 tbsp oil to the batter, otherwise, the crepes might stick to the pan.
- Use two pans to speed up the cooking process.
- Stack the cooked crepes and cover them with a kitchen towel to keep them warm and prevent them from drying out.
Caramel sauce:
- 3 tbsp coconut sugar or brown sugar (30 g)
- 2 tbsp water (20 g)
- 2 tbsp smooth peanut butter or sunflower seed butter (30 g)
- Add peanut butter to a small bowl.
- Heat water and sugar in a pan and bring to a boil.
- Pour the sugar mixture over the nut butter and mix with a whisk
