When it comes to breakfast, sometimes I whip up whatever I want to make, or a recipe I'm interested in trying, but other times I take requests from my kids.  They most frequently asks for crepes, chocolate crepes to be exact.

These gluten free chocolate crepes are one of my tried and true recipes! Fill them with a chocolate ganache and drizzle them with melted chocolate for a decadent treat.

These almond flour chocolate crepes are gluten free, dairy free and paleo friendly. The batter is made in a blender (the cacao powder mixes into the batter best this way) then poured onto a preheated frying pan and ready to eat within minutes!

Ingredients

Here's a list of what you need to make these gluten free chocolate crepes and chocolate filling:

For the crepes

• almond flour
• cacao powder
• tapioca starch
• eggs
• coconut milk (or whatever milk you prefer)
• avocado oil
• maple syrup
• vanilla extract
• oil for cooking (I used coconut oil)

For the chocolate filling

• coconut cream
• dark chocolate chips

How to Make Gluten Free Chocolate Crepes

The batter for these crepes is made in a blender. You can whisk the batter instead, but the cacao powder can be difficult to blend into the batter with a hand held whisk. You won't have this problem with a blender.

First, preheat a frying pan on medium heat. Grease it with a bit of oil (I used coconut oil).

Next, combine all crepe ingredients in your blender. Blend, starting at the lowest speed and gradually increasing the speed until the batter is smooth and consistent.

Pour about ¼ cup of the batter onto the preheated frying pan. Grab the handle of the pan and rotate the pan to spread the batter to the edges. Place the pan back on the stove top and cook the crepe until it is nearly cooked through.

Flip the crepe and cook about a minute more, or until the crepe is fully cooked.

Repeat these steps until all of the batter is used up.

Chocolate Filling For Crepes

The chocolate filling for the chocolate crepes is made of coconut cream and dark chocolate chips. Simply melt the coconut cream and dark chocolate in a small saucepan, over low heat. Spread the chocolate over the crepes and then fold or roll up.

Storage

Because crepes taste best freshly cooked, I suggest cooking the number of crepes you wish to eat and storing the rest of the batter in the fridge. Pour the crepe batter into a small bowl and cover with plastic wrap or bees wax wrap and keep in the fridge for up to 3 days. If the batter thickens, add more milk or a little water to thin it.

If you have leftovers after cooking all the crepes, place them in a sealed container in the fridge. For best flavor and texture, eat the crepes within a couple days.
