Buckwheat & Almond Crepes filled with Strawberries & Vanilla-Cashew Cream - Quirky Cooking
 
Buckwheat & Almond Crepes
filled with Strawberries & Vanilla-Cashew Cream
 
This morning I decided to make crepes out of buckwheat and almonds for breakfast. They were the best I’ve ever made! The secret? Partly the recipe (which was one I made up on the spur of the moment, knowing the basic ratio for crepe recipes), and partly the way I cooked them. I couldn’t wait to share the recipe on Facebook, but I held back a bit of info so I’d have something to blog about… lol!
 
I don’t know about you, but I’ve always found crepes a bit of a pain to make. Unless you have a good crepe pan, they can get stuck, or tear when you try and turn them over. So this morning I decided to save time and effort, and, well, CHEAT!! I cooked them in my sandwich press. 🙂 It worked SO well that I won’t cook them any other way now. It was really, really easy. No messed up crepes, not even one! This really is the simplest, quickest way to make crepes EVER.
 
Buckwheat & Almond Crepes filled with Strawberries & Vanilla-Cashew Cream - Quirky Cooking
 
This recipe is obviously gluten free; practically grain free (since buckwheat is not a grain); and it’s also dairy free. (It’s not egg free, but I’m thinking it could be if you used chia seeds instead of the eggs, and increased the amount of water a little. I’ll try that soon and let you know how it goes.) The ground up almonds plus the water make the ‘milk’ for the recipe. It just so simple. I love recipes that really get back to the basics, and this is one of those.
 
These crepes are also perfect to use as savoury wraps; just leave out the vanilla. Gluten free wraps are generally awful – they are dry, and crumble when you try to wrap them around your food. But these crepes are soft and pliable, and are fine the next day so you can make them ahead. I also find these ones don’t go soggy like the last gluten free crepes I tried to use as wraps, so that’s another big plus! So make up a batch, and keep them in the fridge in a sealed ziploc bag, ready for school lunches – much cheaper and healthier than bought gluten free wraps, and they taste lots better.
 
Oh, and by the way, you can cook them longer and they’ll turn into crisp ‘wafers’, which you can cut into wedges and serve with ice cream! Such a versatile recipe 🙂 Hope you like them!
 
Note: You can find fine sea salt and vanilla powder for this recipe in my online store!

Save Recipe
Print
Ingredients
  1. 150g buckwheat, hulled
  2. 100g raw almonds
  3. 450g water
  4. 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  5. 3 large eggs
  6. a pinch of salt
  7. 2 tsps vanilla extract(leave out if making savoury wraps)
  8. 45g macadamia oil (or other light flavoured oil)
Instructions
  1. Soak buckwheat and almonds in water, with vinegar, in a glass bowl (covered), overnight
  2. Next morning, blend soaked buckwheat and nuts in the soaking water on speed 9 for 2 minutes, adding a little water if needed. The mixture should form a vortex while blending
  3. Add remaining ingredients and blend again for 1 minute, speed 9
  4. Leave the batter to sit for 15 minutes in a cool spot, or in the fridge. It will get a bit thicker, so check it to see if you need to add any water. It shouldn't be as thick as pancake batter.
  5. Preheat sandwich press. When it's ready, pour in the crepe batter, making sure you only make the crepe half the size you want it, as it will spread.
  6. Gently close lid and allow to cook until ready. If you want crispy 'wafers', cook until brown.
  7. Place crepes on a plate as you cook them, covering with a tea towel to keep warm. Leftover crepes can be stored in a plastic bag in the fridge for a few days

I like my crepes filled with fresh strawberries and vanilla-cashew cream, and drizzled with a little pure maple syrup… How do you like yours?

    Could you use buckwheat flour and almond meal instead of whole almonds and buckwheat?

      Yes, you can.

    Do you mind me asking why soak the buckwheat and almonds if we then use the soaking water? I thought it should be poured off?
    I think there is something about soaking I don’t fully understand.
    Thanks, Catherine

      The soaking degrades the phytates, it doesn’t just leach them into the water. So it’s ok to use the water. 🙂

    Hi Jo

    I have a recipe that requires buckwheat flour, but when I looked at the price of buckwheat flour verses buying it in its raw form I decided I would buy the raw buckwheat, after all I have a thermomix and it can do anything. I’ve since tried to research how to make buckwheat flour and now am totally confused. My questions are:

    Can I use the raw buckwheat to make flour?
    If not, what can I use to make buckwheat flour? and/or
    Can I replace buckwheat flour with spelt flour

    Any advice/assistance you can provide regarding buckwheat flour would be greatly appreciated.

    Many thanks
    Helene

      Yes, if you have hulled buckwheat you just mill it for about 20-30 seconds on speed 9 until it becomes a flour. Don’t buy unhealed (with the black skin) as you can’t do anything with that except sprout it.

    If we use buckwheat flour and almond flour for this recipe, can we still soak it overnight?
    Can’t wait to try them for breakfast tomorrow 😊

      Hi JJ! Aww, thanks…glad you love our recipes!! 🙂 No need to soak the flours overnight but if you do, make sure you use the liquid they are soaked in and let us know how they turn out – we haven’t tried this before! xx

{Ruby Red Grapefruit Pie} Wednesday isn’t too ea {Ruby Red Grapefruit Pie} Wednesday isn’t too early to start thinking of treats for the weekend, is it? 😄 Citrus is in abundance right now, so if you’re like me and have ruby red grapefruits piled up on your bench top, you should definitely try this pie. It’s arguably my favourite recipe in our Life-Changing Food cookbook and I will shout its praises every citrus season til my dying day!!

Grapefruit pie is a local favourite in South Texas (USA) and in ruby red grapefruit season you’ll find it served at
little roadside barbecue joints where they guard the recipe closely! I only know about it because my parents are Texan and lived in South Texas for years… but this recipe is way too good to hide away. The pie's crunchy crust holds big, juicy sections of ruby red grapefruit set in a sweet citrus jelly, and it's not bitter, because the grapefruit pith is removed. 

Some versions have a layer of cream cheese spread over the pastry under the grapefruit and jelly, to protect the crust from getting soggy, and this also acts as a creamy foil to the tangy fruit and crunchy crust. I love it best this way - I use cream cheese or labne, or I make cashew cream cheese for a dairy-free version. The traditional accompaniment is a big dollop of fresh whipped cream (which is always sweetened in Texas, but I prefer it unsweetened), or use coconut cream if you’re avoiding dairy. And don't panic filleting the grapefruit - once you get the hang of it, it's quite easy. And if your pieces turn out a little mangled and messy, don't worry, it will taste just as amazing!

You can find the recipe in our Life-Changing Food cookbook* or app AND I’ll be making this recipe and sharing it on my next podcast video THIS FRIDAY  on my citrus episode, so keep an eye out for that! (Subscribe to my newsletter to get all the latest videos as they are released - link in bio.)

{Herb & Cheese Fatayer} I promised to share how we {Herb & Cheese Fatayer} I promised to share how we made these little cheesy-eggy grain-free pastries, so here you go!

- Make a batch of Grain-Free Dough (recipe in Life-Changing Food, or buy the pastry premade from Primal Alternative, or you can use the Almond Meal Pastry on my blog)
- Mix together 300-400g quark (or mashed feta) and 4-5 eggs (whisked)
- Roughly chop some flat-leaf parsley, chives and mint (and finely chopped onion if you like), add zest of 1 lemon and mix through egg mixture, then season with salt and pepper
- flatten a circle of dough in your hands (about 10cm diameter and about 5mm thick) and shape into fatayer (like a little boat), then set onto lined baking trays
- fill fatayer with egg mixture
- bake in 200C oven for 15-20 mins or until pastry is browned and mixture has set firm

I keep these in the fridge/freezer and warm them up for a quick breakfast or lunch!

Thank a farmer for your next meal! ❤️ (Also, S Thank a farmer for your next meal! ❤️ (Also, Simi can do his own washing today 😂😂)

(Simi works on an organic farm and often brings home goodies like these beautiful daikon radish, which we fermented with chilli and garlic! So good - they stay quite crisp and make a great condiment to serve with dinner.)

Yesterday I shared my Monday cooking videos in my Yesterday I shared my Monday cooking videos in my stories (let me know if you missed them and want me to re-share), and one of the questions I had afterwards was this one ⬆️ - “Can you share ‘What we ate this week’ day in the life style? And what is made fresh, prepared ahead, and from the freezer”. 

Why not, I said! So I’ve been taking photos of my food even more than usual 😂 like a photographic food diary, and it’s sometimes boring and sometimes delicious and sometimes weird, but you’re welcome to follow along if you like!! 😁

Today’s “day on a plate” in pictures: 

Breakfast: herb & cheese fatayer (grain-free pastry from Life-Changing Food filled with a mixture of quark, eggs, herbs and lemon zest - will share recipe in another post) - made yesterday and stored in fridge/freezer, heated in grill and eaten on the run with coffee 😁

Lunch: savoury mince from Simple, Healing Food (made yesterday, with a lot of cabbage added because we needed to use it 😄), fermented daikon radish (grown on the organic farm where Simi works), and Camembert cheese (made at a local dairy)

Snacks: Peanut butter chocolate fudge 😁 recipe on the blog ❤️ (and tea)

Dinner: Broccoli & cauliflower bake (from Simple, Healing Food except with cheese on top rather than macadamia “cheese” - prepared yesterday, stored in fridge then baked in oven tonight), steak & veggies - kids had fish instead of steak … I made lots as the leftovers are for work lunches tomorrow 😊

Before bed: probably another cuppa tbh but last night was beet kvass - I don’t think I’ll do that again right before bed though, it was a bit too strong before bed 😄

I don’t know if any of this will be at all helpful, but I guess it will show that I’m not always perfect and I don’t always stick to my meal plan and my food isn’t always “instagrammable” 😄 and that’s ok! 🤗 

PS My meal plan for the week is at the end - links are in my newsletter sent out on Monday. ❤️

I had so much work planned to do today, but at 6am I had so much work planned to do today, but at 6am I decided it was much more important to drive down the mountain and spend the day eating good food and drinking amazing local coffee with our dear friends visiting from Melbourne. 😍❤️ Have you heard of the 5 years rule? In 5 years time, no one is going to remember the housework didn’t get done today, the newsletter didn’t get written, the washing didn’t get put away, or the dinner was very basic. But we WILL remember this beautiful day spent with family and friends. ❤️
