Prep time: 15 | Cook time: 20 | Serves: 4
Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups unsweetened almond milk
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup chopped fresh spinach
1/4 cup crumbled bacon
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, almond milk, eggs, olive oil, and salt until smooth.
Heat a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet and swirl to coat the bottom.
Cook for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
Transfer the crepe to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter.
In a medium bowl, combine the spinach, bacon, and cheese.
Place about 1/4 cup of the filling in the center of each crepe.
Fold the crepes in half and serve immediately.
Why It Works
The batter is made with almond milk, which makes the crepes dairy-free.
The crepes are cooked in a lightly oiled skillet, which prevents them from sticking.
The crepes are filled with spinach, bacon, and cheddar cheese, which adds flavor and protein.
The crepes are folded in half and served immediately, so the filling is warm and gooey.
