Ingredients
  

For the Crepes:

1 cup oat flour

1 scoop vanilla protein powder

2 large eggs

1 ½ cups unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 tbsp coconut oil (melted)

Pinch of salt

For the Cinnamon Filling:

1 tbsp ground cinnamon

2 tbsp coconut sugar (or brown sugar)

1 tbsp maple syrup (optional for extra sweetness)

1 tbsp softened cream cheese (optional for a rich filling)

For the Cream Cheese Topping:

2 oz cream cheese (softened)

2 tbsp Greek yogurt

1 tbsp maple syrup

1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
 

Make the Crepe Batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the oat flour, protein powder, and a pinch of salt. In a separate bowl, combine the eggs, almond milk, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking until smooth. Let the batter rest for about 10 minutes.

    Cook the Crepes: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with coconut oil. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet, swirling to spread it evenly. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges begin to lift, then flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side. Repeat until all batter is used, stacking the crepes on a plate.

      Prepare the Cinnamon Filling: In a small bowl, mix together the ground cinnamon, coconut sugar, and maple syrup until well combined. If using, add the softened cream cheese for a creamier filling.

        Assemble the Crepes: Take one crepe and spread a thin layer of the cinnamon filling across the center. Roll the crepe up gently to encapsulate the filling. Repeat for all crepes.

          Make the Cream Cheese Topping: In another bowl, mix together the softened cream cheese, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

            Serve: Plate your cinnamon roll protein crepes and drizzle the cream cheese topping over them. Optionally, sprinkle some extra cinnamon on top for garnish and serve with fresh fruit or a drizzle of maple syrup if desired.
