Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Almond milk (unsweetened)
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoons Granulated stevia or erythritol
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 0.5 cups Ricotta cheese (part-skim)
- 1 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoons Powdered stevia or erythritol
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 as needed Cooking spray
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, vanilla extract, and granulated stevia until smooth.
Gradually sift in the coconut flour while whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Continue whisking until the batter is smooth and slightly runny.
Heat a nonstick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly coat with cooking spray.
Pour a small amount (about 2 tablespoons) of the batter into the pan and quickly swirl it to create a thin, even layer. Cook for about 1-2 minutes or until the edges begin to lift and the crepe is golden brown on the bottom.
Gently flip the crepe with a spatula and cook the other side for another 30 seconds. Transfer it to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, reapplying cooking spray if needed.
In a small bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, unsweetened cocoa powder, powdered stevia, and ground cinnamon until smooth and creamy.
Spoon a portion of the ricotta cocoa mixture onto one side of each crepe and gently roll it up or fold it into quarters.
Serve immediately and enjoy your South Beach Diet-friendly breakfast crepes!
