Almond Crepes with Chocolate-Almond Butter & Strawberries

These crepes are gluten-free and have a lightly toasted flavor from the almond flour. They can be used for sweet or savory applications. The chocolate-almond butter takes a classic flavor pairing and makes it spreadable. It’s a great basic sauce to have on hand for topping other desserts or using as a dip for fruit.
