Vegan Crepes - Vegan recipe hero image

Crepes have always been a special treat in my family, but when I transitioned to a vegan lifestyle, I thought I’d have to give them up.

I was determined to recreate that joy, and after a bit of experimenting, I found the perfect combination of ingredients.

I love making a big batch on lazy weekend mornings and filling them with fresh fruit or a rich chocolate spread.

It feels like a little piece of indulgence, and I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

What Makes This Recipe Special

  • Made with simple, plant-based ingredients that are easy to find
  • No animal products - completely vegan and cruelty-free
  • Perfect for beginners and experienced cooks alike
  • Delicious results that everyone will love, vegan or not

Ingredients & Substitutions

I love using almond almond milk for these crepes, but feel free to swap in whatever plant-based almond milk you have on hand. If you want to boost the nutrition a bit, you can also try adding a tablespoon of chia seeds to the batter for some extra fiber and omega-3s. Just remember to adjust the water a little if you do!

Tips & Notes

  • I keep my batter in the fridge for a couple of hours before cooking to let the flavors meld together.
  • If you find that your crepes are sticking, try adding a little more oil to the pan and make sure it’s hot enough before pouring the batter.

Recipe Variations

  • Sometimes, I like to add a pinch of cinnamon to the batter for a warm spice flavor.
  • For a savory twist, try adding some finely chopped herbs to the batter before cooking.

Storage & Freezing

Store any leftover crepes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. You can reheat them in a skillet or microwave before serving. If you want to freeze them, just make sure to place parchment paper between each crepe to prevent sticking!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make these gluten-free?

Absolutely! You can substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend. Just make sure to check that it’s a 1:1 ratio substitute.

How do I store leftover crepes?

I usually stack them with a piece of parchment paper in between and store them in an airtight container in the fridge. They’ll keep well for about 3-4 days.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a small bowl, mix the flaxseed meal with 6 tablespoons of water. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to thicken.

  2. 2

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, plant-based almond milk, thinned flaxseed mixture, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth. The batter should be thin, but not too watery.

  3. 3

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a little coconut oil or vegan vegan butter to coat the bottom.

  4. 4

    Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet, swirling it around to create a thin layer. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until the edges start to lift and the bottom is lightly golden.

  5. 5

    Gently flip the crepe with a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side.

  6. 6

    Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate and cover it with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil as needed.

  7. 7

    Serve the crepes warm with your favorite fillings like fresh fruit, nut vegan butter, or a drizzle of maple syrup.
