Crêpes Suzette

Crêpes Suzette is a delightful French breakfast dish featuring delicate vegan crêpes infused with a zesty orange sauce. This light and refreshing dish is perfect for a special morning treat.

Ingredients

• all-purpose flour - 100 grams
• plant-based milk (such as almond or oat) - 250 ml
• flaxseed meal - 2 tablespoons
• water - 6 tablespoons
• coconut oil - 2 tablespoons
• orange juice - 100 ml
• orange zest - 1 teaspoon
• maple syrup - 2 tablespoons
• vanilla extract - 1 teaspoon
• salt - a pinch

Steps

1. In a small bowl, mix the flaxseed meal with water and let it sit for about 5 minutes to thicken.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt.
3. Add the plant-based milk, coconut oil, vanilla extract, and the thickened flaxseed mixture to the flour. Whisk until you have a smooth batter.
4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with a bit of coconut oil.
5. Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet, swirling it around to form a thin crêpe. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges lift, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter.
6. In a separate saucepan, combine the orange juice, orange zest, and maple syrup over medium heat. Bring to a gentle simmer and let it reduce for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened.
7. To serve, stack the crêpes on a plate, drizzle the orange sauce over them, and fold them in quarters. Enjoy warm.
