Description

Delicious and healthy Cinnamon Roll Protein Crepes made with oat flour, egg whites, and a cinnamon yogurt filling, topped with sugar-free cinnamon sugar. Perfect for a high-protein breakfast or snack that satisfies your sweet cravings without added sugar.


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 Topping

  • 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 lump-free.
  2. Heat the Pan: Warm a medium non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat with a little oil or butter to prevent sticking.
  3. Cook the Crepes: Scoop 1/3 cup of batter into the pan, tilt and rotate the pan in a circular motion to spread the batter evenly into a thin crepe. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes until the edges begin to lift and the bottom is lightly browned, then flip and cook for another 1 minute.
  4. Make the Cinnamon Yogurt Filling: Mix Greek yogurt, granular sweetener, and ground cinnamon in a bowl. Add a splash of milk if needed to reach a spreadable consistency.
  5. Assemble the Crepes: Spread the cinnamon yogurt filling evenly over each crepe, then roll them up carefully.
  6. Prepare the Cinnamon Sugar Topping: In a small bowl, combine the granular sweetener and ground cinnamon to make the sugar-free cinnamon sugar mixture.
  7. Serve: Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar topping over the rolled crepes and enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • Use a non-stick pan or well-seasoned crepe pan for best results and minimal sticking.
  • You can substitute oat flour with almond flour or regular flour depending on preference.
  • Maple syrup can be replaced with honey or a sugar-free syrup for lower calories.
  • If the yogurt filling is too thick, thin it with a splash of your preferred milk to make spreading easier.
  • The sweetener erythritol can be swapped for any granular sweetener suitable for baking.
  • These crepes are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the fridge for up to 1 day.
