Instructions
To make the crepes
Add the flour, cinnamon and baking powder to a large bowl. Stir to combine. Add in the vanilla essence almond milk and water. Mix to a smooth batter. Set aside for a couple of minutes. Allow to rest for 15 minutes if you have time.
Add a little oil to the base of a non-stick small frying pan. Add 1/3 cup of the batter to the pan and swirl around the bottom so you get an even pancake/crepe.
Cook on a medium heat for approximately 2 minutes until there are bubbles in the crepe and you can lift over to flip easily.
Flip and cook on the other side for 30 seconds to a minute
Remove from the pan and place on and cover with a clean cloth to keep warm.
Repeat the process with the rest of the batter.
