Ingredients

  • whole wheat flour - 100 grams
  • almond milk - 250 ml
  • large eggs - 2
  • vanilla extract - 1 teaspoon
  • Nutella - 60 grams
  • coconut oil - 1 tablespoon (for cooking)
  • fresh strawberries - 100 grams (for topping)
  • powdered sugar - for dusting (optional)

Steps

  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, almond milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and free of lumps.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of coconut oil to coat the surface.
  3. Pour a ladleful of batter into the skillet, swirling it to create a thin, even layer. Cook for about 1-2 minutes or until the edges start to lift and the bottom is lightly golden.
  4. Flip the crepe and cook for another 1 minute on the other side. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, adding more coconut oil as needed.
  5. Spread a tablespoon of Nutella over half of each crepe, then fold them over. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar.
  6. Serve warm topped with fresh strawberries.
