This recipe for dairy-free chocolate crepes was a “sweet” entry in our March Recipe Madness Contest in 2014. It was created and submitted by Victoria Richard using 8 ingredients or less!
Victoria uses oat flour, so these chocolate crepes are also gluten-free! And she opts to keep the batter unsweetened. This adds rich contrast to the sweet filling, and makes the recipe more versatile.
This recipe works for lunch or dinner, too. Simply omit the cocoa powder and then stuff with some veggies and meat.
As is, these dairy-free chocolate crepes make a wonderfully wholesome brunch, dessert, or morning treat.
