Ingredients
For the Crepes:
- 1/2 cup (60g) oat flour (or whole wheat flour)
- 1/4 cup (30g) High Whey Vanilla Cake
- 2 large eggs
- 3/4 cup (180ml) unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1 tbsp olive oil or melted butter
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder (optional, for flavor)
- Non-stick spray or a small amount of butter for the pan
Suggested Fillings:
- Sautéed spinach, mushrooms, and onions
- Grilled chicken or turkey slices
- Low-fat cheese or dairy-free alternative
- Fresh avocado slices
- Hummus or pesto
Process
- Prepare the Crepe Batter:
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the oat flour, protein powder, salt, and garlic powder (if using). In another bowl, whisk the eggs, almond milk, and olive oil. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking until smooth. Let the batter rest for 5–10 minutes. - Cook the Crepes:
Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly grease with non-stick spray or butter. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the pan, swirling it to coat the surface evenly. Cook for 1–2 minutes until the edges start to lift and the bottom is golden brown. Flip the crepe and cook the other side for another 30 seconds to 1 minute. Repeat with the remaining batter. - Prepare the Fillings:
While the crepes are cooking, prepare your desired fillings. Sauté vegetables, cook protein, and slice cheese or avocado as needed. - Assemble the Crepes:
Place your fillings in the center of each crepe. Fold the edges over to create a roll or wrap-style crepe. Serve immediately.
