Ingredients

Ingredients for the Crepe Batter

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup milk
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted

Ingredients for Sunflower Seed Butter

  • 4 cups roasted, unsalted sunflower seeds
  • 2-4 tablespoons of coconut oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Directions for Crepes:

  1. Place all ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth.
  2. As mixture goes from a flour-like consistency to clumping together (the oil is starting to be released from the heat of the machine and friction), add in 2 tablespoons of coconut oil. Be patient, this can take a several minutes.
  3. Continue processing, and as the mixture continues to warm, it should turn creamy and smooth and whir happily, easily inside the bowl. If not, it is OK to add a bit more oil until the mixture is runny and whirring smoothly.
  4. Continue to process for another 2-3 minutes.
  5. Use a large nonstick pan or skillet.
  6. Cook crepe on either side until golden for about 30 seconds to 1 min.

Directions for Homemade Sunflower Seed Butter: (Makes approx. 2 cups)

  1. Roast raw seeds on a cookie sheet in a 325 degree oven for about 15 minutes about 15 minutes, until the seeds are turning golden brown and are fragrant.
  2. In the bowl of a 14 cup food processor, place the toasted sunflower seeds and process.
  3. As mixture goes from a flour-like consistency to clumping together (the oil is starting to be released from the heat of the machine and friction), add in 2 tablespoons of coconut oil. Be patient, this can take a several minutes.
  4. Continue processing, and as the mixture continues to warm, it should turn creamy and smooth and whir happily, easily inside the bowl. If not, it is OK to add a bit more oil until the mixture is runny and whirring smoothly.
  5. Continue to process for another 2-3 minutes.
  6. Add salt to taste, and process to mix. You sunflower butter should be ready at this point... You can also add a touch of honey if you'd like to sweeten it a bit.
