Vegan Strawberry Crepe Cakes
Celebrate the amazing deal on fresh strawberries at Safeway right now with this beautiful, delicious, on-trend Vegan Strawberry crepe cake recipe. Made with garbanzo bean flour, nut milk, maple syrup, strawberries and lemon, these crepes are a lovely vegan option for dessert or brunch.
The sweetness of the strawberries overpowers the garbanzo bean flavor and you don’t even taste any garbanzo beans in this recipe.
I’ve been playing around with a nutritarian/vegan diet lately in an effort to use more whole plant based foods in my diet and when I came across this recipe, originally from Safeway, I thought I would share it for anyone else who is interested in including more plant-based foods in their diet.
The 32 oz strawberries are on sale now for just $3.33 a package when you buy 3 blueberries, strawberries or raspberries at Safeway. It’s the perfect time to experiment with a new recipe!
