Chocolate Red Velvet Pancakes (healthy)

My Red velvet pancakes (crepes) are gluten-free, refined sugar-free, and super simple to make. I’ve decided to use grated beetroot to give these pancakes a blushing red color and extra sweetness, simple grate, and fold it through the batter. I love to make the pancake dry mix ahead of time, store it in a dry place until you’re ready to make pancakes then simply add your wet ingredients and you’re good to go. If you’re looking for a savory option simply remove the maple syrup from this recipe and you’re left with cocoa and beetroot crepes ready to wrap up your desired savory fillings.
