These tasty light gluten free crepes are made from buckwheat and rice flour, flavoured with cinnamon and vanilla. They also make the most of fresh seasonal summer berries but you can also swap them out for whatever fruit is in season.

Ingredients

Rice flour

¼ cup(s), (50g)

Granulated stevia sweetener

Instructions

  1. Sift flours, sweetener and cinnamon into a medium bowl. Whisk egg, vanilla, milk and ¼ cup (60ml) water in a jug. Pour into flour mixture and lightly whisk until combined and smooth. Set aside to rest for 10 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, combine berries, syrup, orange zest and juice in a bowl. Set aside for 10 minutes to rest.
