This recipe is with butter replaced by California Olive Oil. It makes the crepes taste fruitier and lighter, less buttery. I also replaced the dairy milk with coconut cream milk. I use local whole wheat bleached all purpose flour. And use California Brandy to flambee the dish when serving. I made a vegetarian version and a vegan version, one with fresh farm eggs and another version with egg white substitute called aquafaba, the whipped juice from beans.

Cooking Instructions

Batter 30 minutes, panbake 60 minutes
  1. 1

    Sieve cup of flour into glass bowl, indent in center, fold in beaten egg, or whipped aquafaba bean egg white substitute, Tbs olive oil, drizzle in coconut cream milk, stir till smooth batter. Rest, covered, 30 minutes, then sprinkle 1/4 tsp salt on top. Makes 2 cups of batter.

  2. 2

    Melt 1/2 cup palm sugar in cast iron sauce pan with Tbs olive oil, 2 Tbs of rose water, juice from one orange and zested orange peel, thicken till syrupy, set aside, keep warm.

  3. 3

    Heat skillet at medium heat (#5 out of 10), add 8 drops of olive oil, swish to coat bottom, pour 1/4 cup of batter in center, till batter covers the bottom of the skillet, flip over when edges curl, stack on 10” dinner plate in warm oven. Make eight crepes this way. I have an olive oil mister bottle (amazon) that sprays the oil superthin if counting drops doesnt work.

I teach people at the farmers market to grow small scale fruits and vegetables. My grandparents and parents taught me growing, cooking and preserving home grown fruits and vegetables, eggs, meats and fish. I got certified by the University of California Master Gardener Program in 2005. I try to bring out the original flavor of ingredients, then add layers of spices, herbs and flavorings that enhance, not distort the taste. These are the global, organic and vegan family recipes we use.
