A couple of weeks ago I shared a recipe for a Chocolate Quinoa Cake that we love. And today I have another quinoa recipe with you that my family really enjoyed.
This recipe is adapted from the cookbook Quinoa 365: The Everyday Superfood
Now, I will say I was skeptical of this recipe when I first saw it, but my 12 year old daughter really wanted to give it a try. She thought chocolate crepes that we could all enjoyed sounded wonderful, so we gave them a try for dessert one night.
And they were a success.
We loved them and will definitely make them again. So simple and so good!
If you have never made crepes before, they are really not difficult at all, they just take a little practice.
Chocolate Quinoa Crepes
- 1/3 cup quinoa flour
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 3 eggs
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 1/3 cup milk
- Jam and whipped cream for serving
- In a blender combine quinoa flour, cocoa, sugar, eggs, butter, and milk.
- Blend until well combined.
- Lightly grease a small frying pan or crepe pan. When the pan is hot pour about 3 tablespoons of batter into the pan and swirl around. Cook for about 30 seconds and carefully flip over and cook about 30 seconds more. ( The first few crepes you make may not be pretty, but keep at it and they will turn out.)
- Serve with your favorite jam wrapped up inside and with whipping cream and your favorite chocolate sauce on top.
- Enjoy!

Those look great! We’ll have to try baking these & adding some berries. Thanks for the idea.
I think you would enjoy that cookbook. It might be worth checking to see if your library has it. And I think you would enjoy these.
Wow! These look delicious, qunioa flour is going on my grocery list!
