Instructions

1.      To make the crepes simply put all dry ingredients into a bowl and stir with a whisk.

2.    Process all wet ingredients (except the oil) in a food processor or blender.

3.    Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and stir with a whisk to combine.

4.    Let the batter rest for 5 minutes. Heat a little bit oil in a small/medium sized non-stick skillet (mine has an inside diameter of 5 1/2 inches).

5.    Pour 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet, swirl the batter around to coat the pan evenly. Cook for about 2-4 minutes or until you can easily lift a side of the crepe (don't try to flip the crepe too early).After you flipped the crepe, cook for a further 1-2 minutes. Continue until you have no batter left.

6.    To make the apple filling, put all ingredients in a skillet, stir and let simmer for a few minutes over low/medium heat.

7.    Add a few tsp of filling on each crepe, roll it up and serve with a drizzle of caramel sauce (see recipe below). Enjoy!

Notes

·         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.

·         Instead of rice flour, you can use any other flour e.g. buckwheat flour, quinoa flour, even all-purpose flour (if not gluten-free). Do not use coconut flour though as it's very absorbent.

·         You can use 80 g of applesauce instead of banana.
