Equipment

  • blender

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup quinoa
  • 2 cups water
  • 2 tbsp chia seeds
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract optional
  • orange or lemon zest optional
  • 2 tbsp oil

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Quinoa:
    Rinse the quinoa thoroughly several times to remove its natural bitterness. Soak it in water for 3 hours.
  • Blend the Batter
    In a blender, combine the soaked quinoa, chia seeds, water, salt, vanilla extract, and orange or lemon zest (if using). Blend until the batter is completely smooth.
  • Cook the Crepes
    Preheat a nonstick pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with oil. Pour a ladle of batter into the pan, swirling it around to create a thin, even layer. Cook until the edges lift easily and the bottom is golden, about 2–3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1–2 minutes.
  • Repeat
    Repeat the process, greasing the pan as needed, until all the batter is used.
  • Serve
    Serve warm with your favorite toppings: vegan sour cream, fresh berries, hazelnut spread, maple syrup, or any other toppings you enjoy!
