CHESTNUT FLOUR CREPES (GLUTEN- AND WHEAT-FREE)
Chestnut flour makes very unique crepes that happen to be both gluten- and wheat-free. The smoky, nutty flavor of the chestnut flour complements both savory and sweet fillings. Try them stuffed with warm gorgonzola and walnuts topped with vanilla ice cream and roasted hazelnuts. Delicious! Serve or use immediately, or allow to cool and refrigerate until needed. Cooked crepes will stay fresh in the fridge for 2 days. The batter can be refrigerated up to 24 hours.

Steps:
- Whisk milk, eggs, and 1 tablespoon vegetable oil together in a bowl until thoroughly combined. Sprinkle in the chestnut flour 1/4 cup at a time, mixing well to avoid lumps, until batter is a liquid consistency. Whisk vigorously; pour through a fine strainer to remove any lumps.
- Heat cooking oil in an 8-inch crepe pan over medium-high heat. Pour in 1/4 cup of batter; swirl batter around to cover the entire surface. Cook until the edges have browned and are easily loosened with a spatula, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a serving plate. Repeat with remaining batter.

Steps:
- Place flour in a large bowl. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Add half of the milk and whisk until smooth. Add remaining milk and whisk until smooth; let batter stand 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place ricotta in a medium bowl; stir in 1/4 cup honey and set aside.
- Heat a 6-to-8-inch cast-iron skillet or crepe pan over medium heat; brush pan with enough olive oil to coat. Add 2 tablespoons batter to pan and tilt until evenly coated. Cook until crepe becomes firm on the bottom and begins curling at the edges, about 1 minute. Turn and cook until opposite side is cooked through. Repeat process with remaining batter, stacking crepes on top of one another as you cook.
- To serve, place two tablespoons of the ricotta mixture in the center of each crepe. Fold in half and drizzle with remaining honey; serve warm.
