Frequently Asked Questions
Which pumpkin variety offers the best result in crepioca?
Kabocha squash is the best choice, as its flesh is naturally drier, sweeter, and creamier than traditional pumpkin.
Why did the pumpkin crepioca take longer to set in the pan?
Pumpkin has soluble fibers and higher water retention than pure flour, requiring 3 to 4 minutes of calm cooking to set the base before flipping.
Can I make a sweet version of this same pumpkin crepioca?
Yes, replace the salt and cheese with 1 teaspoon of honey and a pinch of cinnamon powder in the batter to get a very fragrant sweet pancake.
How to flip the crepioca without breaking it in half?
Run the spatula around the entire edge to make sure it's completely released, then make a firm, quick motion to flip the disc in the skillet.
