  • 2 flax eggs
  • watercress  (usually I put about 100g)
  • 500 g of rice milk (or other)
  • Pinch of salt
  • 100 g white flour
  • 150g wholemeal flour
  • 1 tsp of organic coconut oil (or olive oil)

Putt all the ingredients in a food processor and blitz until smooth. Heat a non-stick frying pan with a little of olive oil or coconut oil. Add a ladleful of the batter and swirl the pan until the batter completely coats the base. Cook until the top begins to appear dry then flip carefully by loosening the edges with a butter knife and flipping it over in one swift movement. cook for another minute or so on the other side and then transfer to a serving plate. Serve warm or cold with your favorite topping.

TIPS: Serve plain, with fruit, jam, butter nuts, chocolate, salad, tomato, hummus, etc.

To store, place in an airtight container or ziploc bag with sheets of plastic wrap or wax paper between each crepe. Will reheat well the next day.
