Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour blend for GF option)
  • 1 1/4 cups (300 ml) unsweetened almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil, melted
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3 tbsp aquafaba (liquid from canned chickpeas, whipped)
  • 1 can (13.5 oz/400 ml) full-fat coconut milk, refrigerated overnight (solid cream part only)
  • 2 tbsp powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (150g) fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • Optional: toasted coconut flakes for texture

Instructions

  1. Prepare the coconut whipped cream: Scoop out the solid cream from chilled coconut milk into a cold bowl. Beat with a hand mixer on medium-high for 2-3 minutes until fluffy. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, then whip until creamy. Refrigerate until serving.
  2. Make the crepe batter: Whisk flour and salt in a large bowl. In another bowl, combine almond milk, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Slowly pour wet ingredients into dry, whisking to avoid lumps. Add more almond milk if too thick.
  3. Whip the aquafaba: Using a clean bowl, whip aquafaba with a hand mixer until stiff peaks form. Gently fold into crepe batter without deflating.
  4. Cook the crepes: Heat a crepe pan or non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease. Pour 1/4 cup batter, swirl to coat thinly. Cook 1-2 minutes until edges lift and bubbles form. Flip and cook 30-45 seconds until golden. Repeat with remaining batter, stacking crepes with parchment paper.
  5. Assemble and serve: Spread coconut whipped cream on each crepe, top with sliced strawberries and toasted coconut flakes if using. Roll or fold and serve immediately.

Notes

Use So Delicious coconut milk for best whipping results. Whip aquafaba fresh before folding into batter for fluffiness. Adjust pan heat to avoid burning crepes. Batter can rest up to 10 minutes; stir gently before cooking. Store crepes in fridge up to 2 days; coconut cream separately for 1-2 days. Reheat gently to maintain texture.
