poppyseed crepes with citrus fruits

Serves 4

A delicious healthy breakfast from our Co-Founder and Nutrition Director, Louise Keats.

This crepe mixture is sweetened only with banana and is protein rich thanks to the four eggs. I prefer spelt from a nutritional standpoint as it’s an ancient grain with less gluten that many people find more digestible. But you can use regular plain flour if that’s what you have on hand.

Vegetarian, Nut-free


INGREDIENTS

  • 4 eggs
  • 1 banana
  • 150 g (1 cup) white spelt flour

METHOD

  1. Place eggs, banana, flour, milk, coconut oil and poppyseeds into a food processor or blender and process until well combined and smooth. Set aside until needed.
