Savory Chick Pea Crepes

Finding out that I shouldn't eat Wheat or Dairy has sent me on an interesting journey, to say the least. I thought that my world would collapse without such delicacies such as muffins, breads and pancakes, pies, cakes and biscuits. And to be honest, it did for a while, but in the mean time I have managed to find such lovely alternatives!

These crepes are delicious with a Satay Chicken Filling and Coleslaw salad, or you can make them sweet and top with banana slices, chopped Pecan nuts and a drizzle of honey.

2. Gradually add the water until you have a smooth batter.
Heat a lightly oiled crepe pan on the stove. Spoon enough batter to cover the base of the pan.
