Method

step 1
Make the plum compote. Put the plums (4), maple syrup (2 tbsp), vanilla bean paste (1 tsp), cinnamon (1), star anise (1) and 2 tablespoons of water into a medium saucepan set over a medium heat. Simmer for 10-15 minutes, until the plums release their juices and begin to break down. Take off the heat and carefully pour the compote into a shallow dish, remove the spices and place in the fridge to cool.
step 2
Meanwhile, make the crêpe batter. Put the plain flour (250 g), maple syrup (2 tbsp), oat milk (750 ml), vanilla extract (1 tsp), ½ tsp of salt and 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil into a large mixing bowl and blend using a stick blender, until completely smooth.
step 3
Heat 2 x 24cm frying pans (or crêpe pans if you have them) over a medium-high heat. Pour 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil into each of the warmed pans and spread it around evenly using a pastry brush.
step 4
Pour some batter into the pans using a small ladle, swirling the pan around as you pour so the batter evenly and thinly coats the base. Cook for about a minute, until the crêpes are just starting to curl at the sides. Flip and cook on the other side for a further minute. Remove to a large plate. Repeat until you have at least 15 crêpes, placing sheets of greaseproof paper between each.
step 5
Cut each into an even round, using an 18cm cutter or a small dinner plate.
step 6
To assemble, place a crêpe on a large serving plate, put a tablespoon of the vanilla and coconut pot (2 pots) in the middle and spread it evenly using a small palette knife, leaving a small border around the edge. Repeat with the remaining crêpes to create a stack. Carefully drizzle the plum compote on top, then serve.
