Paleo Crepes…say whaaaaaat? Yes, they are possible. And yes, they are amazing.
I’ve been a crepe lover for as long as I can remember. In Ecuador, crepes were very popular, and growing up, we had awesome little restaurants where we could go to and get some yummy crepes. They had all sorts of savory and sweet crepes, which meant that you could have an entire meal of crepes. Yuuuuum.
My favorite place to get crepes was at a restaurant in an Ecuadorian beach called Casablanca; a beach we used to go to every year for Christmas and New Years Eve as a family.
The Crepperie at Casablanca was super quaint, peaceful, and it had an amazing view of the ocean.
The best time to go was in between 5pm, when the sun was about to set and you could see all sorts of beautiful orange, pink and yellow colors in the sky.
It was an outdoor sort of restaurant; there were no walls, only a ceiling made of straws, so you could feel the breeze coming in from the ocean. It was the perfect setting.
I almost always ordered a sweet crepe. They had all sorts of amazing tropical flavors, like one with homemade mango syrup, freshly shaved coconut, bananas and whipped cream on top…or another one with warm cacao sauce, fresh coconut flakes, bananas and vanilla ice cream on top. Beautiful ingredient combinations.
It has been a long time since I’ve had a real crepe (being Paleo and all), but I recently created a recipe for a Paleo-approved one.
It’s fantastic. You can fill these crepes with either savory or sweet ingredients, so have fun making your own Paleo Crepe creations at home.
I’ll post some fun crepe recipes in the near future, so stay tuned.

Is there a way to make these with almond flour and almond milk? I am not much for coconut.
Hi Amanda! You could substitute the coconut milk with any other kind of nut milk…however, you can’t sub coconut flour 1-to-1 with other nut flours as coconut flour has a unique cooking/baking property. Sorry and hope this helps!!
