Ingredients
Scale
Crepes Batter
- 40 grams (1/2 scant cup) oat flour
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 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 (optional, to thin)
Sugar-free Cinnamon Sugar
- 1 tsp granular sweetener (erythritol)
- 1/3 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Mix Batter: In a bowl, combine oat flour, maple syrup, egg, and egg whites. Stir well until the batter is smooth and lump-free.
- Heat Pan: Heat a medium non-stick skillet or crepe pan with a little oil or butter over medium heat.
- Cook Crepes: Scoop 1/3 cup of crepe batter onto the pan and tilt the pan in circular motion to spread the batter evenly. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes over medium heat until set, then flip and cook briefly on the other side.
- Prepare Filling: Mix Greek yogurt with granular sweetener and ground cinnamon. Add a little milk if needed to achieve spreadable consistency.
- Assemble Rolls: Spread the cinnamon yogurt filling over each cooked crepe, then roll them up tightly.
- Add Cinnamon Sugar: Stir together granular sweetener and ground cinnamon. Sprinkle this sugar-free cinnamon sugar on top of the crepe rolls before serving.
Notes
- Use any flour you prefer if oat flour is unavailable, such as all-purpose or gluten-free flour.
- Adjust sweetness by using honey or maple syrup as alternatives to erythritol.
- Add a small splash of milk to the batter if it feels too thick for easy spreading.
- Cook crepes on medium heat to avoid burning and achieve even cooking.
- Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
