Waffles are so last year.

French Toast?  Who’s that? It’s time to make room for the new kid in breakfast:

    So I attempted your chocolate chip cookie dough oatmeal…and it was super runny! It was like a drink! I’m assuming I should use less milk in the blending process, but I’m wondering why mine turned out differently? Hmmmm.

    These are so cute!!
    They’re like the ultimate crepe pancake carrot cake hybrid. Did you eat them with chop sticks?! 😀

    Oh my gosh, I LOVE THESE. I always called them crepe tacos. I used your crepe recipe too! I love pumpkin pie ones. I make plain crepes, and then I make a mixture of pumpkin, stevia, and pumpkin pie spice. That would taste so good with the healthy cream cheese icing! Definitely trying that this weekend.

  8. Katie says:

    I make crepes like this and roll up stir fried veggies! Curried mushrooms, onions, and broccoli inside a pancake? Yes, please!

    Yum! I’ve had a serious hankerin’ for pancakes lately. I should give this a try. I also love ’em rolled up with vegan sausage.
