Ingredients
Candied Bacon
- 8 ounce package uncured bacon cooked and crumbled
- ¼ cup brown sugar
Sourdough Crepes
- 1 cup sourdough starter
- 2 large eggs
- ⅓ cup milk I used coconut milk (box)
- 2 Tablespoons melted butter
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Maple Cream
- 1 cup coconut cream* this is the cream at the top of a cold can of full-fat coconut milk
- 2 Tablespoons pure maple syrup
Instructions
For the Candied Bacon:
- In a large skillet, fry bacon until crisp. Drain on paper towels. Crumble/chop bacon into pieces. Pour fat out of pan and return to the stove.
- Add brown sugar and cook until melted.
- Add the crumbled bacon and stir to combine.
- Remove to a silpat or parchment paper and allow to cool.
For the Crepes:
- In a large bowl, whisk together crepe ingredients.
- Heat a small non-stick frying pan (8 - 10") and add a dollop of butter.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter into pan and swirl around to evenly coat the bottom of pan.
- Cook until slightly browned (about 2 minutes) and flip over. Cook the other side.
- Remove to a large plate while cooking remaining crepes. Add a dollop of butter between each crepe to keep them from sticking to the pan.
For the Maple Cream:
- Open a cold can of coconut milk WITHOUT shaking first. Scoop out solid coconut that has formed at the top of the can, and place in a bowl.
- Beat coconut cream until smooth.
- Add maple syrup, and beat to combine.
- Fold crepes into quarters.
- Top with a dollop of maple cream and candied bacon. Drizzle with maple syrup.
Notes
- Feel free to use regular milk in the crepes and heavy whipping cream in place of coconut cream.
- You can also roll the crepes with the maple cream filling, or fill and fold over.
