Chocolate Einkorn Crepes

Print Recipe
12 crepes
These delicious crepes make an excellent breakfast or dessert. If strawberries are out of season, try with fruit syrup instead!

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup Bluebird Organic Einkorn Flour
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 1/4 cups water
  • 4 tablespoons butter melted
  • safflower oil for skillet
Toppings
  • 1 cup fruit fresh or frozen, sliced (or fruit syrup)
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • powdered sugar to taste

Methods

  • Sift the Bluebird Einkorn Flour and cocoa powder into a large mixing bowl. Add salt and whisk until dry ingredients are thoroughly incorporated.
  • Whisk eggs in a small bowl. Gradually add milk and water to the eggs while whisking until the wet ingredients are thoroughly combined.
  • Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients, whisking vigorously to prevent lumps. Add melted butter and whisk until smooth (These ingredients may be combined in a blender and processed for 1 minute).
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Stir before using.
  • Place a baking sheet in the oven and heat to 175 degrees. Dampen a dish towel with warm water and set aside. 
  • Lightly oil a 6- to 8-inch lightweight skillet or crepe pan. Place over medium heat.
  • When the pan is warm, lift from heat, then pour in ¼ cup crepe batter while tilting the pan so batter coats bottom evenly. Return to heat and cook until lightly browned underneath, for about 2 minutes. Turn and cook other side for about 1 minute.
  • Place finished crepes on a baking sheet in the oven and cover with a damp towel.
  • Remove crepes from the oven. Roll or fold crepes and top with strawberries and Greek yogurt. Dust with powdered sugar. Serve warm.
