French Buckwheat Crepes

Step 1

Mix together the Buckwheat Flour and Salt (for savoury crepes) or Caster Sugar (for sweet crepes) in a large mixing bowl. Create a well in the centre and pour in the whisked Eggs, Milk and Sparkling Water. Whisk to get a thin, liquid batter.

Step 2

Rest for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours) to allow for the Buckwheat Flour to absorb all the liquid.

Step 3

Preheat a medium size, non-stick pan with a little bit of melted butter. When warm, pour in a little bit of the crepe batter (see note 1).

Step 4

Cook for about 1 minute on each side - you know the crepe is ready to be flipped when the edges are starting to curl.

Step 5

- If the batter is appears to be very thick and does not spread around the pan easily: add a little bit more water and/or milk.- If the batter is very runny, add a little bit more Buckwheat Flour

Step 6

To store, leave out to cool down completely then cover with plastic wrap or aluminium foil and keep in the fridge for up to 4 days.
