Sweet Flourless “Crepes”
Traditional crepes are a popular and very delicious French dish made with a combination of flour and eggs. But just because you’re Gluten Free or on a Keto diet doesn’t mean you have to miss out on a sweet crepes treat!
This extremely versatile, gluten-free version omits the flour and makes the most delicious low-carb wraps that you can enjoy with your favorite sweet fillings.
In this recipe we’ll show you how to make the flourless crepes as well as a rich balsamic glaze and a homemade maple whipped cream. The balsamic glaze is the perfect way to satisfy your sweet tooth instead of using a sugar-filled chocolate sauce!
Drizzle the toppings over fresh strawberries and bananas for a totally yummy dessert!
For best results when cooking these flourless egg crepes briefly cover the skillet with a lid once the batter has been spread into a thin, uniform layer. This will help set the top, as well as the bottom, of your crepes. This will make them easier to flip and give a more uniform appearance when finished.
