Buckwheat Crepes

Grain free Crepes/Wraps

You can use these sweet as crepes or as wraps for savoury...

 

Ingredients

1/2 C buckwheat kernals
1/2 C hulled millet
1 C water
2 T goat whey
1/2C tapioca starch
2 large eggs or 4 small

Method

Prepare your flour

Using your Thermomix, grind the buckwheat and millet 130 sec, speed 9
(if you don't have a TMX, buy flours instead)
Put flours into a big glass bowl
Add water and whey and stir to combine
Cover with gladwrap and leave to ferment for 6 hours (or overnight)

 

Prepare batter

Add tapioca and eggs and whisk until you have a smooth batter

Cook

Warm a small amount of ghee in a pan and pour on a 1/4C of batter, swirl the pan around until the batter coats the whole pan

Carefully flip when the edges start to come away from the pan
Cook a minute or so on the other side

Watch with care as these cook very quickly




Serve with yoghurt and honey or maple syrup for a sweet treat
Use as a wrap to make your lunch

TIP: Can be frozen, between layers of baking paper and defrosted on the bench or microwave before use.

Are you still Failsafe and want to make these? Just omit the whey and the fermenting and mix batter and use right away. The fermenting process will create amines...

Buckwheat Pancakes

Pancakes with Fruit

Ingredients:

1/3C buckwheat kernals
1/3C hulled millet
1/4C tapioca starch
1T coconut flour
1/4t bicarb soda
1C kefir (coconut or goat/cow)
1 egg

Fruit
sliced banana
sliced strawberries
blueberries

Method:

Prepare flour

Grind buckwheat and millet in Thermomix, 1 min speed 9
(If you don't have a TMX, buy flours)
If you want to ferment these grains, add kefir now and leave for 6 hours (or overnight)

Prepare batter

Add other ingredients and whisk to combine
Stand 30 mins to thicken

Cook 

Add a little ghee to the pan on medium heat
Pour in a small amount of batter (these work best if they are small - medium in size)
Drop in a few pieces of fruit (if desired)
Once bubbling, carefully flip
Cook a few minutes on the other side

Serve with yoghurt or maple syrup/honey

 

If you want to keep these Failsafe,

omit the coconut flour and do not ferment, use water instead of the kefir. Add the water slowly and stop when you have a thick batter (it should still pour but not be runny)
