Instructions

Prepare the Batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond flour, poppy seeds, lemon zest, almond milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until you achieve a smooth, uniform batter free of lumps.
Heat the Skillet: Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter to prevent sticking and add flavor.
Pour the Batter: Pour a small amount of the batter into the hot skillet, then swirl the pan gently to evenly coat the bottom with a thin layer.
Cook the Crepes: Allow the crepe to cook for about 1 to 2 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and the bottom turns golden brown.
Flip and Finish: Carefully flip the crepe using a spatula and cook for another minute on the other side until lightly browned and cooked through.
Repeat and Serve: Continue with the remaining batter, stacking the finished crepes on a plate. Serve warm with your choice of toppings like fresh berries, yogurt, or a drizzle of honey.

Notes

Be sure to use a non-stick skillet and sufficient butter to prevent tearing while flipping.
For an extra lemony kick, add a sprinkle of powdered sugar mixed with lemon zest on top before serving.
These crepes are perfect for a low-carb or gluten-free diet and can be customized with various fillings.
Make sure not to overcook the crepes as they can become dry and brittle.
