Vegan Honey Lemon Candied Crepes - Easy Chickpea Crepes

I don't know where you live but it's been almost impossible to find organic flour here. Since the pandemic hit everyone is at home baking. Thus, my hubs and I decided to try some chickpea flour recipes. Here's our fun take on vegan chickpea flour crepes. They are a bit thicker and dense compared to the traditional crepes, so we added honey and lemon juice to make them more flavourful. Give this easy recipe a try the next time you're out of flour. 

The candied lemons are just garnished, we decided to add more lemons to our diet since they're super good for you. Lemons are full of vitamin C, aids in digestion and is known to help clarify skin. Boost your health, add some lemons!
