Buckwheat Crepes, light and crispy thin. You may never go back to the other kind! Gluten free, these are perfect for either savoury or sweet toppings!

The buckwheat crepe, is not a crepe if we are being technical. After spending some time in Brittany in France, I learned that a savoury buckwheat crepe is not a crepe, but a galette. But I won’t tell if you won’t. This simple recipe is perfect for sweet or savoury fillings, so let your imagination soar. Oh the combo’s I have seen...I should really write a crepe book!!!

3: Allow batter to rest while you preheat a frypan on a medium heat (Induction 6).
4: Just before cooking, dollop a little butter into pan and allow to melt. Pour each crepe into hot pan and cook a few minutes each side.
