Ingredients
1 cup Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
2 Large Eggs
1/2 cup All-Purpose Flour (or Whole Wheat Pastry Flour)
1/4 cup Unsalted Butter, melted
1 tbsp Granulated Sugar (optional, for slightly sweeter crepes)
1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
Pinch of Salt
1 scoop Vanilla Protein Powder (whey or plant-based)
2 tbsp Brown Sugar
1 tbsp Ground Cinnamo
2-4 tbsp Milk (for cinnamon swirl)
4 oz Light Cream Cheese, softened
1-2 tbsp Powdered Erythritol or Sweetener of Choice (to taste)
Instructions
- Prepare the crepe batter by whisking together milk, eggs, protein powder, flour, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth. Let rest for 15-30 minutes
- Make the cinnamon swirl filling by mixing melted butter, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon until combined. Transfer this to a piping bag
- Whip up the protein cream cheese glaze by mixing light cream cheese, vanilla protein powder, 2 tablespoons of milk, vanilla extract, powdered sweetener, and salt until smooth
- Cook the crepes in a non-stick pan over medium-low heat, pouring in batter and spreading thinly. Add cinnamon swirl while cooking, then flip
- Assemble by stacking crepes and drizzling with the protein cream cheese glaze. Serve warm
Notes
Batter consistency is key; adjust with more milk or flour as needed.
Resting the batter is crucial for tender crepes.
These are best served warm, allowing the swirls to stay soft.
