A large thin pancake covered and filled with your favourite toppings - whether its yogurt and fruit or ice cream and sprinkles crepes are so easily versatile to compliment whatever food mood your in!

Only 3 simple ingredients are needed to make this perfect breakfast option, great for a lot of people all wanting different things - each can choose there own toppings and flavours to compliment there crepe. Whether its fruit or chocolate these are so easily changed from day to day to create a whole new breakfast so that you don't get bored of the same thing every day (no offence to anyone who has the same every day- do whatever works for you).

One of my faveriote combos is chocolate and banana with a squirt of whipped cream - don't want to eat chocolate in the mourning? I love to use the @sweetfreedomuk choc shot as this gives you the perfect chocolate flavour without being full of sugar.

This recipe is not originally dairy free but a substitute milk can be used to make it dairy free ( your results may differ from mine in the photos) and the whipped cream would need to be left out or a dairy free

substitute cream used . This recipe does use eggs so is not originally vegan but you could experiment with egg substitutes and see how It turns out- tag me on your photos on instagram I'd love to see how they go!

These crepes have no refined sugar and are of course gluten free!

Serves : one

Ingredients:

1 egg

100 g gluten free plain flour

150 ml milk

A large knob of coconut oil

Toppings:

1 banana, chopped into penny shapes

Chocolate spread or chocolate variation (see above for recommendation)

A squirt of whipped cream

Method:

1. Whisk all your ingredients together in a large jug aside from the coconut oil and toppings ( if the batter is thick and does not easily pour of of a spoon add a dash of water to loosen it up)

2. Heat a pancake pan to a medium heat and add a small knob of your coconut oil (not all of it)

3. Spread the oil over the pan and let it simmer for a moment

4. Pour a thin layer of pancake batter into the pan evening it out by picking up the pan and moving it in circular motions until the pancake batter has formed an evenly layered circle

5. Let this cook for a minute or until browned lightly, then loosen the edges with a spatula. Bring the spatula underneath moving it sideways to loosen the pancake. Using the spatula flip the pancake and cook on the other side for a minute or until lightly browned. Place onto a plate and repeat for the rest of the mixture.

6. To serve spread over your choice of chocolate sauce, chopped banana and finish with a squirt of whipped cream. You could fold your pancake in a number of ways for example rolled, halved or in a triangle! Get creative, have fun and enjoy!
