Instructions
How to Make Fluffy High Protein Cinnamon Crepes
- In a medium bowl, combine oat flour, maple syrup, egg, and egg whites. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring no lumps remain.
- Stir in Greek yogurt and vanilla extract. Gradually add milk until the batter reaches a thin, pourable consistency.
- Allow the batter to rest for about 5 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, mix together Greek yogurt, sweetener, and cinnamon. Blend until smooth.
- Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat it with butter or oil.
- Pour 1/3 cup of the batter into the skillet. Tilt the pan in a circular motion to spread the batter thinly and evenly.
- Cook the crepe for 1-2 minutes until the edges are lightly golden. Flip it over and cook for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute.
- Spread the yogurt filling in the center of the crepe. Roll it up tightly and sprinkle with a cinnamon-sweetener mix.
- Enjoy your crepes warm for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
Optional: Top with fresh berries or a drizzle of maple syrup for added sweetness.
