Whole Grain Crepes


Place in blender and blend until smooth:

1½ C milk
3-4 eggs
2-2½ T grape seed oil
1 t vanilla
2 T honey
½ C raw oatmeal (old fashioned - or whatever you have)
1 C whole wheat flour (or ½ C whole wheat + ½ C white)
1 t baking powder
1 T flax seeds
1 T chia seeds
¼ t salt

Pour it into a mixing bowl and stir it before making each pancake. The batter will be kind of thin, but it will thicken up as time passes due to the chia and flax.

Heat frying pan, and set fire to medium/low. If you have a non-stick pan, don't use any oil on the pan. If you don't have a non-stick pan, pour a tiny bit of oil on the pan and spread it very thinly with a folded paper towel. Do this before making each pancake.

Pour or scoop about 2-3 T of batter on the hot pan, and tilt the pan so the batter spreads to a big circle. Flip when bubbles come up all over it and it's browned on the bottom. 

Here are some ideas for fillings:

Any combination of cut strawberries, blueberries, banana slices, kiwi slices, peach slices, mango slices, and Greek yogurt or whipped cream.

Apple sauce, a slight sprinkle of cinnamon, yogurt.

Jam and yogurt.
