Recipe for crepes
Crepes to me say spring, Easter, weekend company! Here are more crepe recipes from my friends: How to Make Crepes Low Carb, Nut Free, Paleo and Keto (Sugar Free Mom), Red Velvet Crepes [TidyMom], and Chocolate Banana Crepe Recipe [Barbara Bakes].
When I think about the feel of our home, I also think about the textures and colors of our walls, furniture, and overall atmosphere. I particularly love a look with white walls, simple, comfortable furniture, and of course my fiddle leaf fig in the corner.
Having my own little corner of plants brings me so much joy.
Written words (on the walls) can also capture the senses, and they give us a feeling of belonging.
Out running errands, just this week, my hand slipped into my husband’s as we were walking in downtown Bend. My hand fits into his like a glove, 27 years of fitting together. It’s where it’s meant to be. I actually challenged my viewers on Instagram, when’s the last time you held your sweetie’s hand? I really believe we all get too busy, even for the small magical moments like placing our hand tightly into our loved one’s hand.

The smell of our homes also brings a sense of belonging. It not only stirs up memories, but makes our tummies growl, and reminds us of our hunger. But are we really physically hungry? We are all so overfed (hand raised). But seriously, make this delicious Gluten-Free Coconut Strawberry Crepes Recipe! :)
Opening our homes
I believe our community and world are hungry for more than food. We are longing for friendship, community, belonging. Maybe a good meal together.
Opening our homes is a way to bring people in, to feed them, and show so much love. Smells of goodness can be just what our hearts need.
I know, I’m a lucky mom. The sound of music is everything in our home. The beautiful music of piano, guitar, or violin, brings so much joy to this mama’s heart. Whether we have musical kids or not, we can always turn on our favorite playlists and send glorious music throughout the house. Music does something for our souls.
Music goes deep. Again, it stirs up nostalgia, gives us hope, makes us smile, and gives us so much joy.
So, this weekend, or for Easter, will you be hosting?
Think about the smells, sounds, words, flavors … what can you give your guests when they come into your home?

Gluten-Free Coconut Strawberry Crepes Recipe
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup gluten-free flour
- 1 1/4 cup milk, almond or coconut for dairy-free
- Pinch of salt
- 3 eggs
- 2 Tbsp. avocado oil, plus some for pan
- 2 tsp. lemon zest
- 2 cans coconut milk
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 1 Tbsp. coconut sugar
- Garnish: Fresh strawberries, sliced
- Lemon zest
Instructions
- Open the cans of coconut milk and remove the thick creme from the top; do not mix with the water at bottom of can. In medium bowl, whisk the coconut cream using an electric beater. Add in the lemon zest, coconut sugar, and vanilla when the cream is thick and smooth. Be careful not to over-mix. Place in refrigerator until crepes are ready to serve.
- In blender, add flour, milk, salt, eggs, and avocado oil. Blend until smooth.
- Heat a crepe pan, or a pan that is relatively flat, on medium-low heat. Add a touch of oil to the pan and then pour a little more than 1/4 cup of batter in the center—tilt the pan in a circular motion, so the batter disperses to the edge of the pan and thins out. Reduce heat slightly and allow to cook for about 3-4 minutes before flipping—watch for bubbles to appear on whole crepe before flipping.
- Remove from pan and allow to cool (unless you don’t mind coconut whipped cream melting!)
- Place whipped cream and strawberries in crepes and garnish with fresh lemon zest. Enjoy!

Great recipe, Sandy! Very easy to follow (and beautiful photos!). Can I double this recipe and have it come out just as good?
I’m sure you can double the recipe! ENJOY!
Sandy, these look delightful! I love the coconut and strawberry flavor together!
Yum! I’ve done vegan crepes, but I’ll have to try these. My MIL is hosting Easter (she just loves to host the holidays).
