Raw Chocolate (Cacao) Vanilla Banana Walnut Crepes

One of my favorite things to do when experimenting with new raw food recipes is to make my “former” favorite foods in a raw version. I love crepes. My daughters and I enjoyed many Sunday mornings with a plate of crepes. But the old version with eggs, flour, sugar, etc. leave me feeling tired and bloated, and nutritionally devoid!

 

Banana Crepe

 

I wanted to make a truly gourmet crepe that would qualify as a raw food dessert crepe. My other name for these is tuxedo crepes because they are black and white compliments of the cacao cream and the vanilla cream filings! I added ground walnuts to the banana crepes not only for nutritional value but also to provide a great texture. Make sure you don’t over dehydrate the crepes or you will have fruit leather!

    We are new to raw food and tonight New Year’s Eve is my wife’s birthday. She asked me to find a meal and dessert that were raw for her birthday dinner. I made theses creeps I stuck exactly to the recipe except for agave, my wife asked me to use honey. These turned out magnificently we thoroughly enjoyed them. I have two small pieces of feedback the recipe does not say how many servings it makes and two the dehydration does not suggest a temperature I did 112 for 8.5 hours and the result was perfect. I have a lot of the chocolate cream left over but we will cope with that 🙂

      The one I use the most is my food processor. But that is also how I orientate my recipes. I also use by blender, could not live with out a dehydrator, but the juicer hardly sees any action these days. I should use it more but I mostly make green drinks in the vitamix.

    Is there a substitute for the coconut pulp? Unfortunately I’m not able to get my hands on young coconuts, but would love to make these crepes!

      You can make it without…it will just be much denser.
