Tips and Notes
- Use Fresh Ingredients: Always use fresh almond flour for the best texture and flavor.
- Let the Batter Rest: Let your crepe batter sit for about 30 minutes. It helps create a smoother texture.
- Keep Your Pan Hot: Make sure your skillet is hot enough! A drop of water should sizzle on the surface.
- Experiment with Flavors: Add spices or herbs to the batter for a fun twist. Cinnamon, vanilla, or even some fresh herbs work well!
- Non-stick Pan is Key: I highly recommend using a non-stick pan to prevent sticking. It makes flipping so much easier!
