Crepe Cake with Pecans / Healthier Version
Hey guys!
Do you like crepes? I absolutely do!
I grew up eating a lot of crepes and honestly rarely waffles.
This recipe is more than 25 years old š My mom gave it to me when I was making my own recipe book. I was only 10 years old but I wanted my own recipe book, and I still keep it with me.
I will share more recipes from my young age, I promise!š Of course, I will always do some twists to make it healthier.
Ingredients
6 eggs
6 TBSP flour (overflowing tablespoons š)
1 cup milk
date sugar (or regular organic sugar)
ground pecans or walnuts
1 tsp salt (I use Himalayan pink salt)
Instructions
- Separate egg whites and yolks in different bowls.
- Use an electric mixer and beat egg whites until fluffy.
- Add 1 TBSP of date sugar to egg yolks and beat with an electric mixer.
- Now combine these two batters.
- In a big pot put about 1 inch of water and bring to a boil. Cover the pot with a plate and reduce heat to low. We will be putting the crepes onto this plate.
- Heat non stick pan on medium-high heat. Coat with cooking spray or a tiny bit of oil. Pour the batter into the pan, swirling to cover the bottom. Cook for about 45-60 seconds or until edges are beginning to crisp.
- Do not cook on the other side.
- Place the crepe on a plate that you just put as a lid on top of the pot with boiling water š
- Put ground pecans and date sugar (or regular sugar) on a crepe. The boiling water under the plate will help loosen up the sugar and pecans, so everything will be combined well.
- Repeat the process until you use all batter.
- Top with strawberries and organic Nutella!
- Enjoy! ā¤ļøšāļø
