Sweet & Savory Crepes & Galettes Recipes

What is the difference between a crepe and a galette? First, crepes and galettes are unleavened flatbreads. In France, there are 3 different types of galettes; buckwheat (recipes below & NOTE at bottom), Galette des Rois, and Galette Breton. Crepes and galettes are quick, easy to make, and nowadays can be made sweet or savory. If you are intimidated by the thought of making these flatbreads, don't be, they are so easy and I show you how here to make a basic crepe recipe (which includes galettes), with step-by-step instructions that will make a variety of flavors and types.

Try different flavors like the sweet Chocolate Cream Filled Crepe or the savory Spicy Ground Beef, for a tasty lunch, dinner, or quick snack that won't take long to prepare.

There is another "cousin" too, French toast!

Note:

In France buckwheat is called sarrasin or blé noir (black flour))

"Yes, buckwheat is gluten-free. Buckwheat, also called beech wheat or kasha, does not contain any wheat or gluten. Despite the name, buckwheat is not closely related to wheat—buckwheat isn't even a grain. Instead, buckwheat is a flowering plant related to leafy vegetables like rhubarb and sorrel." from Beyond Celiac.
