GAPS Crepes

One of the dishes I miss on this diet is the crepes and berries we used to have for breakfast!

I found this in my Recipes For Healthy Living book and modified it a bit!

Crepes

3 extra large eggs

1/2 cup egg whites

2 Tbsp water

Butter

Honey

1/8 to 1/4 tsp. vanilla extract

Fresh or frozen fruit (If you use frozen make sure you take out the berries so they can thaw.  I place mine on an oven safe plate and put it in the oven on the lowest setting so they can thaw and warm.)

Before you get started with the crepe mixture, put 1/4 of butter and 1/4 cup of honey, and vanilla  in a sauce pan and warm on the stove over low, then shut it off.

Crack the eggs into a large bowl, and whisk together with the egg whites and water

Grease an 8 inch non-stick omelette pan and place over med. heat. (I used a cast iron skillet)

Pour 1/4 cup of batter in the pan and give it a swirl to evenly coat the bottom of the pan. Cook until the egg sets on top.

Flip the crepe over and briefly cook on the second side

When cooked remove and roll, and place on a plate.

Add fruit

Top with Honey/butter mixture

So here is my modification to the recipe......

1. I mixed up the honey/butter/vanilla mixture to go on top of the crepes!

2.  I added just a drop or two of this vanilla bean paste, or you can add 1/8 to 1/4 tsp of vanilla extract to the batter.  It makes all the difference in the world!!
