Ingredients

• 1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups milk
• 2 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup granulated sugar (for caramel sauce)
• 0.25 cup water
• 0.5 cup heavy cream
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (for caramel sauce)
• 1 pinch sea salt

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, milk, eggs, melted butter, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth and no lumps remain.

Step 2

Let the crepe batter rest for about 15 minutes at room temperature, allowing the bubbles to dissipate.

Step 3

Meanwhile, make the caramel sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring gently until the sugar dissolves completely.

Step 4

Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the sugar mixture to a boil without stirring. Let it cook until it turns a medium amber color, about 8 to 10 minutes. Keep an eye on it as it can burn quickly.

Step 5

Remove the caramelized sugar from heat and carefully whisk in the heavy cream; the mixture will bubble vigorously.

Step 6

Stir in the butter and a pinch of sea salt until smooth. Set aside the caramel sauce to cool slightly.

Step 7

For the crepes, heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.

Step 8

Pour about 1/4 cup of the crepe batter into the pan and tilt to spread evenly. Cook until the edges begin to lift and the bottom is lightly golden, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 9

Flip the crepe and cook the other side for another 30 seconds to 1 minute. Remove and repeat with the remaining batter.

Step 10

Serve the crepes warm, drizzled with the homemade caramel sauce. Optionally, garnish with fresh fruit or whipped cream.
