Healthy Gluten-free Coconut Cinnamon Crepes
I guess the saying “the third times a charm is correct”. This is the third recipe I tried to make for crepes! The first two did not turn out well. One batter was too thick so they were pancakes and the other one was too fragile that each time I tried to flip them over they broke into pieces! I had enough of these failure recipes, so I bravely and carefully composed this recipe. And Voila they turned out awesome!! Easy to flip and they smell and taste like delicious coconut! Plus they are gluten-free and can be made vegan! This will be your new favorite go-to weekend breakfast!!
Gluten-free Coconut Cinnamon Crepes
- 1/2 cup oat flour
- 1 egg (or flax egg for vegan)
- 1 Tbsp. shredded unsweetened coconut
- 1/4 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp. coconut extract
- 1/4 tsp. cinnamon
- Blend all ingredients in a food processor for about 10 seconds (batter should be thin).
- Spray cooking spray on a skillet and place on medium heat.
- Spread batter thin onto heated skillet. Cook one one side for about a minute, then slide a spatula under the middle to flip to the other side. Cook for another minute on the other side.
- Repeat with remaining batter.
- Top with natural peanut butter, sliced apricots and coconut, or Lemon-Blueberry Chia Seed Jam (click HERE for recipe),if desired.
- Enjoy!

*Post and Pictures updated 7/19/17*
Can you believe that I created this recipe 3 years ago? This was when I just started making recipes and posting them, wowwww I feel old! Anyways, during this time a few years ago I became introduced to chia seeds and was obsessed. Once I heard about chia seed jam, my life was never the same.
Did you ever try to make normal jam? It’s a super long process that I wouldn’t wish upon anyone, however this chia seed jam is super duper simple and fail proof.
You can make it in less than 20 minutes. Intrigued by chia seeds? They soak up all the blueberry juice to create a jam-like texture.
To add a pop of flavor, I added fresh lemon juice, but you could totally leave it out if its not your jam (pun intended).
Lemon Blueberry Chia Seed Jam Ingredients:
fresh blueberries
lemon juice
Substitutions for This Chia Seed Jam:
Blueberries: You can sub in any berry such as raspberries, blackberries or strawberries.
Maple syrup: You can add in any type of liquid sweetener such as honey or agave.

Store this chia jam in the fridge for up to 4 weeks.
Serving This Chia Seed Jam:
- Make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich

The possibilities are endless!
