Cinnamon Apple Protein Crepes

From Jenny Grothe

Cinnamon Apple Protein Crepes (from Shanna)

Makes 3-4 crepes depending on pan size / 1 serving

4 egg whites, 1/2 scoop low carb vanilla protein powder (I use optimum nutrition natural) , 3 tbsp low fat cottage cheese, 2 tbsp unsweetened almond milk, 2 tbsp dry whole oats,splash vanilla extract, 1 tsp cinnamon, stevia to taste
1 tbsp apple sauce

Put all except applesauce in blender and blend til smooth. Should be runny. Let sit a few minutes to reduce air bubbles

Heat a small skillet, preferably 8" , spray in nonstick cooking spray, using one hand pour in a few tablespoons of batter while swirling the pan with the other hand to coat bottom of pan evenly with batter. It will be thing. Cook 2 min or until cooked enough to flip. Flip with a spatula (I use my softer silicone one so it doesn't tear the crepe) and cook another 30 seconds.

You can do any of the following :
Fill with a little of the applesauce, sprinkle with cinnamon, roll up and sprinkle more cinnamon. And repeat with remaining crepes Or

Fold in half, fold in half again to have wedges and then put applesauce and cinnamon on top

Or roll all up and spread applesauce on top and cinnamon

Or stuff each one in your face as you make the next one and when all done top it off with licking the applesauce off the spoon.

I've done all options and they all taste grate. You can also sprinkle a little sweetener on top like stevia/truvia (my personal choice) or whatever tickles your fancy.
