Growing up in France I have the fondest memories of making crepes with my family and friends. I am so happy to share this vegan and GF version with you!

This recipe is a mix between a sweet version and the traditional “galette” which is a savoury version from Bretagne, a North West region of France. The galette is made using buckwheat flour, a very nourishing wholegrain.

If you do not include buckwheat in your diet yet, I hope this delicious recipe inspires you to try it!

Prep Time : 1 hour
Cook Time : 30 minutes
Total Time : 1 hour 30 minutes
Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 260 g buckwheat flour
  • 1 ½ cup (354.88 ml) soy milk
  • 1 cup (236.59 ml) soda water
  • 40 g softened butter
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp (0.5 tsp) sea salt flakes
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp bicarb soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder

Instructions

  • Combine all the dry ingredients in a bowl and stir until they are well mixed.
  • Add all the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix well until a smooth batter forms.
  • Let the batter rest under a damp cloth for 30 minutes to 1 hour to allow the ingredients to fully combine.
  • Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add a small amount of vegan butter. Pour approximately ¼ cup of the batter onto the pan, tilting the pan in a circular motion so that the batter evenly coats the surface.
  • Cook the crepe for about 1 minute, until the bottom is light brown. Use a spatula to loosen the crepe, then flip it over and cook the other side for about 30 seconds.
  • Keep the cooked crepes warm in the oven at a low setting while you cook the rest of the batter. Serve the crepes hot.

  1. Bonjour,
    La farine de sarrasin montrée dans la vidéo est bien plus pâle que celle que j’utilise, que ce soit en France ou aux Etats-Unis. C’est quelle marque?
