Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
6 Rolled oats
1/8 cup Nonfat cottage cheese
1/8 cup Water
15 Eggs

Instructions

  1. Begin by spraying a small skillet with cooking spray and setting the heat to low-medium.
  2. In a blender, combine the rolled oats, nonfat cottage cheese, water, and eggs, blending until the mixture is smooth and homogenous.
  3. Pour enough batter into the skillet to cover the base, spreading it gently to reach the edges.
  4. Allow the crepe to cook until the edges begin to lift slightly, approximately 1-2 minutes. Be cautious; if the skillet is too hot or the crepe is undercooked, the whites may run when flipped.
  5. Carefully flip the crepe, cooking the opposite side for just a few seconds until it’s set but still soft.
  6. This recipe typically yields about 4 deliciously thin and healthy crepes, perfect for a satisfying breakfast.

Serving Suggestions

Top these Protein Crepes with your favorite fruits, a dollop of cottage cheese, or even a sprinkle of nuts for added texture and flavor. Enjoy them as a healthy start to your day or a nourishing snack!
