Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 1.5 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 4 pieces Large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 tablespoon Butter or coconut oil (for greasing the pan)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, salt, and baking powder until well combined.
Step 2
In a separate large bowl, beat the eggs. Add the almond milk and olive oil, whisking to blend evenly.
Step 3
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, whisking continuously until you have a smooth and lump-free batter.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium-low heat and lightly grease with butter or coconut oil.
Step 5
Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet. Tilt the pan in a circular motion so that the batter spreads evenly to form a thin layer.
Step 6
Cook for about 1-2 minutes on one side until the edges start to lift and the bottom is lightly golden. Flip the crepe using a spatula and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side.
Step 7
Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate and cover to keep warm. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, re-greasing the pan as needed.
Step 8
Serve the panquecas warm with your choice of fillings or toppings, such as savory cheese and ham, or a sweet option like sugar-free jam or berries.
