Directions

Step 1: For thin and vegan crepes:
In a bowl, combine dry ingredients.

Step 2: In another bowl, combine liquid ingredients. For Pancakes, only add yolks at this stage.

Step 3: Pour wet ingredient mixture into dry ingredient mixture.
Whisk until everything is combined and mixture has no lumps.

Step 4: (only for the Fluffy Pancakes)
In another bowl, whisk egg whites until they form stiff peaks.
Fold egg whites into crepe mixture using a spatula, mixing very gently to avoid collapsing egg whites.

Step 5: Drizzle vegetable oil onto a very hot skillet.
Pour ⅓ cup of mixture into skillet. Spread batter evenly so crepe is as thin as possible. Cook for 2 minutes. Flip with a spatula or flipper. Cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute for thin and vegan crepes or for 2 minutes for fluffy pancakes.

Step 6: Serve immediately, garnished with berries and maple syrup if desired.

Tips

Waffle variations:
Pour ⅓ cup of fluffy pancake mixture into a preheated and buttered waffle maker and cook for 3–4 minutes or until golden brown.
