Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cup protein powder (vanilla or flavor of choice)
- 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 1 unit large egg
- 1 unit egg white
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon butter (for cooking)
- 0.5 cup jam or preserves of choice
- as needed optional: fresh berries for garnish
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together whole wheat flour and protein powder until well combined.
Add milk, the whole egg, egg white, and vanilla extract to the flour mixture. Whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
Stir in the salt and let the batter sit for about 5 minutes.
Heat a non-stick crepe pan or a large skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of butter, just enough to lightly coat the bottom.
Once the pan is hot, pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter into the center and quickly swirl the pan to spread the batter evenly over the surface.
Cook the crepe for about 1-2 minutes until the edges begin to lift and the underside is lightly golden. Flip the crepe with a spatula and cook the other side for an additional 1 minute.
Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter as needed.
To serve, spread about 2 tablespoons of jam or preserves over each crepe and fold or roll up as desired.
Garnish with fresh berries if using and enjoy warm.
