Step-By-Step Guide
Step 1: In a blender or food processor, combine the rolled oats, ripe bananas, eggs, almond milk, almond flour, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt. Blend until smooth and well combined, scraping down the sides of the blender as needed.
Step 2: Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with coconut oil or butter. Pour a small amount of the batter into the skillet, swirling it around to coat the bottom in a thin layer. Cook the crepe for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and the bottom is lightly golden brown. Carefully flip the crepe and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side.
Step 3: Repeat the process with the remaining batter, stacking the cooked crepes on a plate as you go. Serve the almond oat banana crepes warm, topped with your favorite toppings such as sliced bananas, berries, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a dollop of yogurt.
Expert Tips
- For a smoother batter, you can soak the rolled oats in the almond milk for 10-15 minutes before blending.
- Be sure not to overcrowd the skillet when cooking the crepes, as this can make them difficult to flip.
- These crepes can be made in advance and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Simply reheat them in a skillet or microwave before serving.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use steel-cut oats instead of rolled oats?
While steel-cut oats can be used in this recipe, they will result in a denser texture. For the best results, I recommend sticking with rolled oats for a lighter and fluffier crepe.
Can I make these crepes dairy-free?
Yes, these almond oat banana crepes are already dairy-free, as they are made with almond milk instead of cowโs milk. Feel free to use your favorite dairy-free milk alternative, such as coconut milk or soy milk.
How should I store leftover crepes?
Store any leftover almond oat banana crepes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply warm them in a skillet or microwave until heated through.
