Equipment

  • Mixing Bowls
  • Whisk
  • Non-stick pan
  • Spatula

Ingredients
  

Crepes

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 scoops vanilla protein powder
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups milk any kind works
  • 1 tbsp melted butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • pinch of salt

Cinnamon Roll Filling

  • 2 tbsp melted butter
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Cream Cheese Glaze

  • 2 tbsp cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp milk
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, mix the flour, protein powder, and salt.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until smooth. The batter should be thin, like heavy cream.
  • Let the batter rest for about 15 minutes to ensure tender crepes.
  • Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray.
  • Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the center of the pan, then quickly tilt and swirl the pan to spread the batter into a thin circle.
  • Cook for about 1-2 minutes until the edges look dry and the bottom is lightly golden.
  • Carefully flip the crepe and cook for another 30 seconds. Then transfer to a plate.
  • Repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the crepes as you go.
  • To prepare the cinnamon filling, mix the melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla in a small bowl until smooth.
  • Spread a thin layer of the filling onto each crepe.
  • Roll each crepe up like a tube or fold it into quarters.
  • To make the cream cheese glaze, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
  • Add the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract and mix until there are no lumps.
  • Drizzle the glaze over your rolled Cinnamon Roll Protein Crepes and enjoy!
