Ingredients
  

For the crepe batter
  • 1 cup protein powder Can use any flavor like vanilla or cookie dough.
  • 1 cup milk (or milk alternative) Use a plant-based milk for a vegan option.
  • 2 large eggs For a vegan option, substitute with flax eggs.
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon Adds warm flavor.
  • 1 tablespoon sweetener (like sugar or honey) Adjust to taste.
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract Enhances flavor.
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter (for cooking) Necessary for cooking and flavor.
Optional toppings
  • cream cheese icing For drizzling on top.
  • chopped nuts For added crunch.
  • fresh fruit For freshness and flavor.

Method
 

Preparation of the batter
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the protein powder, milk, eggs, cinnamon, sweetener, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
Cooking the crepes
  1. In a non-stick skillet, melt the tablespoon of butter over medium heat.
  2. Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the center of the pan. Quickly tilt the pan in a circular motion to spread the batter evenly.
  3. Cook for about 1-2 minutes or until the edges start to lift and the bottom is lightly golden.
  4. Carefully flip the crepe using a spatula, cooking for an additional minute on the other side.
  5. Once done, transfer to a plate and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the pan as necessary.
Serving
  1. Stack the crepes on a plate and top with your favorite toppings like cream cheese icing, nuts, or slices of fresh fruit. Enjoy!

Notes

Store leftover crepes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For freezing, place cooked crepes between layers of parchment paper for up to a month. Reheat in a skillet or microwave (30 seconds) to warm through.
