Gluten-Free Crêpes

Gluten-Free Crêpes prepared with rice-based gluten-free flour, eggs, milk, water, and melted butter create thin, tender pancakes suitable for sweet or savory fillings. The batter is cooked quickly in a hot buttered pan, producing delicate crêpes with lightly golden surfaces. Optional flavor add-ins can customize the taste, and the crêpes can be stored chilled or frozen with wax paper to prevent sticking.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose gluten-free flour Use a rice-based AP flour, never a bean-based flour. See Recipe Notes for directions to use flour without xanthan gum, with xanthan gum, such as Cup 4 Cup
  • 1 cup milk cold
  • 1 cup water cold
  • 3 egg
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons butter melted, plus more butter or oil for brushing hot pan
Optional add-ins for savory crêpes:
  • herbs diced, fresh
Optional add-ins for sweet crêpes:
  • sweet liqueur dash
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Whisk together all ingredients in a bowl.
  2. Pre-heat non-stick pan on high heat, and brush or spray with oil or butter. Oil should shimmer on the pan.
  3. Holding pan just off heat, add 2-3 TB batter and swirl to coat pan. Place back on heat and cook for about 90 seconds, until the bottom of the crêpe is golden and slides off the pan easily.
  4. Flip and cook the other side for 5-10 seconds. Move crêpe to a wire rack or plate to cool, and repeat with remaining batter.
  5. Make Ahead: Stack with wax paper in between crêpes. Refrigerate for up to 2 days, or freeze for up to 3-4 months in an airtight container. Don't skip the wax paper-- the crêpes will stick together.

Notes

  • For gluten-free all-purpose flour blends without xanthan gum, adjust liquid amounts and whisk the batter before each crêpe to prevent flour from settling.
  • The recipe yields about eight 10-inch, ten 8-inch, or twenty 5-inch crêpes depending on size.
  • King Arthur's Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour without xanthan gum is recommended for consistent results.
