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
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Assemble Crepes: Spread the cinnamon yogurt filling evenly over each crepe. Roll up each crepe tightly to form a spiral.
- 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.
