I’m excited to share a yummy recipe featuring the amazing Stellar Crepe Pan – a Savoury Beetroot Crepe!  Whether you’re making a large serving for yourself or sharing two small servings with a loved one, this recipe is a burst of colours and flavours.

Using the Stellar Crepe Pan makes the cooking process a breeze, ensuring your crepe turns out perfectly. With a vibrant purple pancake mixture made from fresh beetroot, flour, milk, and a touch of baking powder, you’ll create a visually stunning and delicious base.

Once cooked to perfection, you can customise your crepe with a medley of fresh ingredients, including hummus, tenderstem broccoli, spring onions, avocado, cucumber, radish, cherry tomatoes, and spinach leaves (or any other ingredients you have to hand in your fridge), all drizzled with olive oil and sprinkled with some flavoured sea salt.

This savoury beetroot crepe is not only a treat for the taste buds but also a feast for the eyes, perfect for any meal of the day, and I’m so pleased to be able to rely on the Stellar Crepe Pan’s even heating and non-stick surface, making this dish a pleasure to cook!
