Fat Loss Friendly Lemon Blackberry Protein Crepe

Oh. my. goodness.

→ This fat loss friendly Lemon Blackberry Protein Crepe is truly heaven. What's funny about this recipe is that it happened totally by accident (っ◕‿◕)っ it was supposed to be a pancake, but I can't flip a pancake to save life, and it broke, so I figured I will just roll it up like a burrito and stuff it with something marvelous. Anyhoo- this is how it goes...

Crepe Ingredients:
  • 1 scoop vanilla (or unflavored) protein powder. I use Biotrust Low Carb
    a lot in baking because it isn't as dry as most whey protein powders out there. Plant-based powders are also perfect for baking

  • 1/2c liquid egg whites

  • 2 drops lemon essential oil -OR- lemon extract

  • Stevia to taste (I used stevia vanilla creme drops)

  • *Depending on your protein powder, it may be a little too thick. If so, just add a few splashes of water until the batter is slightly thinner than regular pancake batter




  • Filling Ingredients (oh yes, there was filling! Look closely at the chocolate dripping out!):
  • 1 scoop chocolate protein powder (I used Biotrust chocolate)

  • Slowly, on a light drizzle, add water and stir until it becomes like a pudding consistency.

  • Stick bowl in freezer as the crepe cooks so that's it's nice and cold


  • Toppings:
  • I drizzled Barlean's Blackberry Omega Swirl liquid over the top, & a little Natural by Nature whipped cream, which is my favorite because it's organic, grass-fed dairy, and doesn't contain any corn syrup (unlike traditional varieties). I get it from Trader Joes, but if you visit the link, there is a "locate a distributor" link that'll help you find it.


    Cooking Technique: Simply pour the batter onto a greased pan on low/medium heat (I use coconut oil spray). Immediately swirl liquid around until it covers the whole pan and then cook all the way through (will be around 8 mins, or until bubbles disappear). If you're better at cooking than I am (& I really hope you are), you can flip it and cook the other side for 10-20 seconds before sliding off onto your plate.
    Once on plate, take pudding bowl out of the freezer & spoon it into the middle of the crepe circle. Fold like a burrito, then drizzle with the Barleans & top with whipped cream. Ta Da! Now you have a fat loss meal that will make everyone around you jealous ツ
