Ingredients

3 tablespoons reduced-calorie butter, melted and cooled slightly2 cups skim milk3/4 cup egg substitute1/2 cup buckwheat flour*3/4 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour (I use Bob's Red Mill)**1 teaspoon sugar1/8 teaspoon saltSpecial equipment: parchment or wax paper*Crepes are traditionally made with buckwheat flour, which adds a nutty flavor. You can swap whole wheat flour. **You could use white whole wheat flour, but the texture will be heavier.

Directions

Place all the wet ingredients in a blender.
Carefully sift the dry ingredients onto a piece or parchment paper. (No parchment? Use a paper plate.)
With the blender running on low, slowly add the dry ingredients and blend until smooth. Leave the batter in the blender and let it rest for 30 minutes to allow the gluten to develop.

Warm a nonstick skillet over medium heat, then coat with nonstick cooking spray.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter into the pan, then swirl to coat entire bottom of pan. Bubbles will appear and then subside. Run a spatula around the edges of the crepe. Gently lift the crepe and flip with fingers or spatula. Cook for one minute on the bottom.
Place each crepe on a layer of wax or parchment paper.
Repeat with the remaining crepes.

Thanks for the recipe. They taste great and will make a great base for my work lunch sandwich wraps this week. I added some flax to mine, used real eggs, and ww flour with the buckwheat (yummmmy). Thanks for measuring the serving sizes so perfectly. One of the few recipies that came out exactly. - 1/19/13
