The recipe I developed contains carbs, but the grains I use are also full proteins. Especially quinoa which contains all amino acids and it's considered a full protein. I also like to add a little almond meal for extra protein. The recipe is gluten free because I can't eat gluten and I like crepes a lot. Second, the grains I use have more nutrients than the whole wheat flour and how I mentioned , have a lot of proteins
Serve with fruits, fruit spreads, ample syrup , honey, cheese etc. My son eats them plain and I like them with crumbled feta cheese.
Ingredients:
3 eggs
1 can coconut milk
2/3 cup quinoa flour
1/3 cup garbanzo bean flour
1 cup arrow root
2 Tbsp. Almond meal
1 Tsp. raw unfiltered honey (optional)
2 Tbsp. extra virgin coconut oil
Beat the eggs in a bowl with a whisk. Add coconut milk . Add flours, arrow root , almond meal, honey and mix well until you have a homogeneous batter. If it's too thick you can add some more liquid and if you think it's too runny add a spoon or two quinoa flour.
In a skillet, melt coconut oil. Once when it melted return to a cup. With a dipper, spread batter evenly on the skillet. After few seconds to a minute flip the crepe and bake on the other site. Repeat the same procedure until there isn't any batter left.
