Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (120g) rolled oats, ground into flour
- 2 medium ripe bananas, mashed
- 1 cup (240ml) unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
- ½ cup (120g) Greek yogurt (or dairy-free alternative)
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional)
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- Fresh fruits (like berries or sliced bananas)
- Chopped nuts (optional)
- Extra drizzle of maple syrup or honey (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Oat Flour: If you’re using rolled oats, place them in a blender or food processor and blend until you achieve a fine flour consistency.
- Mix the Batter: In the same blender, add the mashed bananas, almond milk, eggs, vanilla extract, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Blend until smooth and well combined. Let the batter sit for about 5 minutes to thicken slightly.
- Heat the Skillet: Place your non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with a bit of oil or cooking spray.
- Cook the Crepes: Pour about ¼ cup of batter into the skillet, tilting the pan to spread it evenly into a circle. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges start to lift and the bottom is golden brown. Carefully flip the crepe using a spatula and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side.
- Repeat: Continue cooking the remaining batter, stacking the crepes on a plate as you go. You should get about 6-8 crepes, depending on the size!
- Make the Filling: In a small bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and cinnamon until smooth.
- Assemble the Crepes: Spread a generous spoonful of the yogurt filling on one half of each crepe, then fold it over. Feel free to stack them or serve them open-faced!
- Top and Serve: Garnish with fresh fruits, a sprinkle of nuts, and a drizzle of maple syrup if desired. Enjoy your delicious cinnamon roll protein crepes warm!
