Ingredients
Scale
Crepe Batter
- 40 grams oat flour (or any flour)
- 1 tbsp maple syrup (or honey)
- 1 egg
- 180 ml egg whites (3/4 cup)
Cinnamon Yogurt Filling
- 80 grams Greek yogurt (1/3 cup)
- 1 tsp granular sweetener (erythritol)
- 1/3 tsp ground cinnamon
- Preferred milk (if necessary, to thin Filling)
Sugar-free Cinnamon Sugar Topping
- 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 batter is smooth and free of lumps.
- Heat Pan: Warm a medium non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat with a little oil or butter to prevent sticking.
- Cook Crepes: Pour 1/3 cup of the batter into the pan and swirl the pan in a circular motion to spread the batter thinly and evenly. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes until set, then flip and cook for another 1 minute until done. Remove and set aside.
- Make Cinnamon Yogurt Filling: In a separate bowl, mix Greek yogurt with granular sweetener and ground cinnamon. Add a splash of milk if needed to achieve a spreadable consistency.
- Assemble Crepes: Spread the cinnamon yogurt filling evenly over each crepe, then roll them up tightly.
- Prepare Topping: In a small bowl, stir together the erythritol sweetener and cinnamon to create the sugar-free cinnamon sugar.
- Serve: Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mix over the rolled crepes and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use oat flour for a gluten-free option or substitute with any preferred flour.
- Adjust the sweetness in the batter and filling to your taste by varying the maple syrup or sweetener.
- If the yogurt filling is too thick, thin it slightly with a splash of your preferred milk.
- Cook the crepes on medium heat to avoid burning and ensure even cooking.
- This recipe serves one but can be easily scaled for more servings.
- For extra protein, consider adding a scoop of protein powder to the batter.
