To begin I cracked two large eggs into a medium size mixing bowl.

Then I used an electric hand mixer to beat the eggs until they were frothy.

Once the eggs were frothy I measured in some almond milk, Gluten Free Bisquick, Bob’s Red Mill 1 to 1 Gluten Free Baking Flour, margarine, Frank’s Red Hot Sauce and salt.

I used the electric hand mixer again to beat all the ingredients until they were well combined.

Then I folded in some diced banana peppers.

Next I sprayed a crepe pan with cooking spray and turned the heat to medium low.  My pan measures 9.5 inches.

Once the pan was heated I poured about 2/3 cup of batter onto it and swirled it around to the edges.  I wanted large crepes.

If you want smaller crepes reduce the amount of batter and only swirl to the diameter you want.

It took about 3 minutes to cook the first side.  I knew it was ready to flip because it was easy to slide my spatula under it.

I flipped the crepe and let it cook for about 3 minutes on the other side as well.

Once both sides of the crepe were cooked I transferred it to a plate and started the next one.  This recipe made four full size crepes or you could choose to make 6 smaller ones.

Now it is time for your creativity.  Fill the crepes with your favourite fillings.  We filled ours with an egg mixture.  Then we folded the crepe in half and then in half again.  

Once loaded and folded top with a sauce that will complement your filling.

Another presentation is to fill near the center and fold over it before rolling the crepe and topping with a complementary sauce.

The possibilities are endless, so have fun and enjoy these Gluten Free Savoury Crepes.

FAQS:

What should I serve on savoury crepes?

Savoury crepes, also known as galettes in French cuisine, offer a versatile canvas for a wide variety of delicious fillings and toppings. Here are some ideas for what you can serve on savoury crepes:

  1. Cheese and Ham: A classic combination is ham and cheese. You can use Swiss cheese, Gruyere, cheddar, or any cheese of your choice. Add slices of ham and fold the crepe over for a simple and satisfying option.
  2. Spinach and Mushroom: Sautéed spinach and mushrooms with a creamy sauce make a delightful filling. You can add garlic and a touch of nutmeg for extra flavor.
  3. Ratatouille: Ratatouille, a French vegetable stew, is a great filling for savory crepes. It typically includes eggplant, zucchini, bell peppers, and tomatoes. Top it with some grated Parmesan cheese for added richness.
  4. Chicken and Mushroom: Cooked chicken pieces and sautéed mushrooms in a creamy sauce are a comforting and hearty filling for savoury crepes.
  5. Smoked Salmon and Cream Cheese: For an elegant option, spread cream cheese on the crepe, add slices of smoked salmon, capers, red onion, and fresh dill. Roll it up or fold it like an envelope.
  6. Pesto and Roasted Vegetables: Spread pesto sauce on the crepe and add roasted or grilled vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes. Top with fresh basil and grated Parmesan.
  7. Avocado and Bacon: Mash ripe avocado on the crepe, sprinkle with crispy bacon bits, and add some sliced tomatoes and lettuce for a tasty twist on a BLT.
  8. Caprese: Layer sliced tomatoes, fresh mozzarella cheese, basil leaves, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze for a Mediterranean-inspired filling.
  9. Sauteed Spinach and Feta: Sauté spinach with garlic, then crumble feta cheese on top. Fold the crepe to let the feta melt slightly.
  10. Curry Chicken: Make a mild curry sauce with cooked chicken, onions, and bell peppers. Spoon the mixture onto the crepe, and garnish with chopped cilantro and a squeeze of lemon.
  11. Ratios and Proportions: You can also go for simple ratios of ingredients, such as a 1:1 ratio of sautéed onions and mushrooms with a creamy sauce, or a 2:1 ratio of broccoli and cheddar cheese.
  12. Breakfast Crepes: Don’t forget that savory crepes can also make a delicious breakfast. Fill them with scrambled eggs, bacon or sausage, and cheese.

Remember to season your fillings with salt, pepper, herbs, and spices to taste. You can also experiment with different sauces and condiments like hollandaise, béchamel, or hot sauce to enhance the flavors. Ultimately, the choice of fillings is limited only by your imagination and personal preferences.  Make sure all fillings are also gluten free.

How do I store savoury crepes?

Storing savoury crepes is relatively straightforward. Here’s how you can do it:

  1. Cool Them Down: Allow your savoury crepes to cool down to room temperature after cooking. This helps prevent condensation inside the storage container, which can make the crepes soggy.
  2. Layering: If you’re stacking multiple crepes, place a piece of parchment paper or wax paper between each crepe. This prevents them from sticking together.
  3. Storage Container: Place the cooled crepes in an airtight container. A resealable plastic bag or a plastic container with a tight-fitting lid works well. Make sure the container is clean and dry before use.
  4. Refrigeration: Store the savoury crepes in the refrigerator if you plan to consume them within a few days. They should stay fresh for 2-3 days when refrigerated.
  5. Labeling: Don’t forget to label your storage container or bag with the date of preparation to keep track of freshness.
  6. Reheat: Reheat the crepes in a non-stick skillet or microwave until they’re warm. Be careful not to overheat, as they can become dry or rubbery.

Remember that the quality of crepes may degrade slightly upon reheating, but with proper storage and reheating techniques, you can enjoy them with minimal loss of flavor and texture.

Can I freeze savoury crepes?

Yes, you can freeze savoury crepes. Freezing crepes is a convenient way to have them on hand for quick meals or snacks. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to freeze savory crepes:

  1. Cook the Crepes: Prepare your savoury crepes as you normally would. You can fill them with various savoury ingredients like cheese, vegetables, meats, or any other fillings you prefer.
  2. Allow Them to Cool: Let the cooked crepes cool down to room temperature. This helps prevent condensation from forming inside the packaging, which can lead to freezer burn.
  3. Stack and Separate: If you want to stack the crepes for freezing, place a piece of parchment paper or wax paper between each crepe. This prevents them from sticking together.
  4. Wrap Well: Individually wrap each crepe or stack of crepes in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Make sure they are well-sealed to prevent freezer burn and odors from affecting the crepes.
  5. Place in a Freezer Bag: Put the wrapped crepes into a resealable freezer bag, squeezing out as much air as possible to minimize freezer burn.
  6. Label and Date: Don’t forget to label the bag with the contents and date of freezing. Crepes can be stored in the freezer for up to 2-3 months.
  7. Freeze: Place the bag of crepes in the freezer, making sure to lay it flat so that the crepes freeze in a uniform shape.

To Use Frozen Savoury Crepes:

  1. When you’re ready to enjoy the crepes, remove the desired number from the freezer.
  2. Thaw: You can thaw them by placing them in the refrigerator overnight or on the countertop for about 30 minutes at room temperature. Alternatively, you can microwave them at a low setting for a short time, but be careful not to overheat them and make them tough.
  3. Reheat: Reheat the thawed crepes in a skillet over low to medium heat or in the microwave until warmed through. Be careful not to overheat, as this can dry them out.
  4. Serve: Fill the crepes with your favorite savory fillings, fold them, and serve immediately.

By following these steps, you can enjoy your frozen savory crepes with minimal effort whenever you have a craving.
