Description

Delight in these protein-packed Cinnamon Roll Protein Crepes, perfectly blending oat flour and egg whites for a light, nutritious breakfast with a flavorful cinnamon yogurt filling and sugar-free cinnamon sugar topping.


Ingredients

Scale

Crepe Batter

  • 40 grams (1/2 scant cup) oat flour (or any flour)
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup (or honey)
  • 1 egg
  • 180 ml (3/4 cup) egg whites

Cinnamon Yogurt Filling

  • 80 grams (1/3 cup) Greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp granular sweetener (erythritol)
  • 1/3 tsp ground cinnamon
  • Preferred milk (if necessary, to thin)

Sugar-free Cinnamon Sugar

  • 1 tsp granular sweetener (erythritol)
  • 1/3 tsp ground cinnamon


Instructions

  1. Prepare Batter: In a bowl, combine oat flour, maple syrup (or honey), egg, and egg whites. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.
  2. Heat Pan: Warm a medium non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat with a small amount of oil or butter to prevent sticking.
  3. Cook Crepes: Pour 1/3 cup of the crepe batter onto the hot pan and tilt the skillet in a circular motion to spread the batter evenly. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes until the edges lift easily, then flip and cook the other side briefly.
  4. Make Cinnamon Yogurt Filling: In a bowl, mix Greek yogurt, granular sweetener, and ground cinnamon. Add a splash of preferred milk if the filling needs thinning for easier spreading.
  5. Assemble Crepes: Spread the cinnamon yogurt filling evenly over each crepe. Roll up each crepe tightly to form a spiral.
  6. Add Sugar-Free Cinnamon Sugar: In a small bowl, mix granular sweetener and ground cinnamon. Sprinkle this cinnamon sugar mixture generously over the rolled crepes for added flavor.

Notes

  • You can substitute oat flour with almond flour or whole wheat flour for a different texture and flavor.
  • Use honey instead of maple syrup as a natural sweetener if preferred.
  • If you want thinner crepes, add a bit more milk to the batter.
  • For a dairy-free option, replace Greek yogurt with coconut or almond-based yogurt.
  • Spray the pan with non-stick cooking spray instead of oil or butter to reduce fat.
  • Serve warm for the best texture and flavor.
