These vibrant green spinach crepes are the breakfast upgrade you have been waiting for: delicate, tender, and rolled around a savory filling of tuna and hard-boiled egg.

A plate of Spinach Crepes with Tuna and Egg

Ingredients

For the crepes:

  • 2 eggs
  • 240 ml (1 cup) milk
  • 240 ml (1 cup) boiling water
  • 150–200 g (1 1/4–1 2/3 cups) rice flour
  • Pinch of salt
  • Sweetener to taste
  • 75 g (2.6 oz) spinach, blended
  • Fresh dill, chopped
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

For the filling:

  • 200 g (7 oz) canned tuna, drained
  • 5 hard-boiled eggs

Instructions

  1. Blend the spinach until completely smooth, then whisk the eggs with all the crepe ingredients into a smooth, pourable batter.
  2. Heat a lightly oiled non-stick pan and fry thin crepes on both sides until lightly golden.
  3. Chop the boiled eggs and mix them with the drained tuna.
  4. Spoon the filling onto each crepe, roll up, and serve warm.

Tips

  • Blend the spinach completely smooth. A silky batter gives you that even green color and a tender crepe with no leafy bits. If you want to master the flip, the Serious Eats guides on crepes are a great read.
  • Keep the pan heat moderate. Too hot and the rice-flour batter sets before it spreads; too cool and the crepes turn gummy. For more tuna inspiration, try our Chicken and Cheese Stuffed Egg Crepes next.
  • Warm the filling slightly. Room-temperature tuna and egg keep the crepes from cooling too fast — a trick any Allrecipes breakfast fan will appreciate.
