Description

Delicious and healthy Cinnamon Roll Protein Crepes made with oat flour, egg whites, and a cinnamon-spiced Greek yogurt filling. A perfect high-protein breakfast or snack that’s low in sugar and easy to prepare.


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 the 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.
  2. Heat the pan: Warm a medium non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly grease with oil or butter.
  3. Cook the crepes: Pour about 1/3 cup of batter into the pan. Tilt the pan in a circular motion to spread the batter evenly. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes until edges set, then flip and cook the other side briefly.
  4. Make cinnamon yogurt filling: Mix Greek yogurt with granular sweetener and ground cinnamon. Add a splash of milk if needed to thin the mixture for easier spreading.
  5. Assemble crepes: Spread the cinnamon yogurt filling over each crepe evenly, then roll the crepe tightly.
  6. Prepare cinnamon sugar topping: In a small bowl, stir together sweetener and cinnamon.
  7. Finish and serve: Sprinkle the sugar-free cinnamon sugar mixture over the rolled crepes before serving.

Notes

  • Use oat flour for gluten-free option or substitute with any preferred flour.
  • You can replace maple syrup with honey or another natural sweetener.
  • Adjust the thickness of the yogurt filling with milk to suit your spreading preference.
  • Cook crepes on medium heat to avoid burning and ensure even cooking.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based alternative.
