Strawberry Protein Crepes
Start your day with this simple high-protein crepes recipe! My strawberry crepes are dairy-free, egg-free, and made with plant-based protein.
Servings: 4 servings
Equipment
Ingredients
- ¼ cup vegan protein powder
- 1 cup sparkling water OR regular water divided
- 1 ¼ cups all purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 cup almond milk
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil melted, plus more for frying
- Strawberries for serving
- Vanilla coconut yogurt for serving
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine the protein powder and ¼ cup sparkling water. Whisk until the protein powder dissolves.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, and sugar. Add the protein powder mixture, remaining sparkling water, almond milk, and coconut oil. Whisk well until smooth and well combined.
- Heat more coconut oil in a medium non-stick pan over medium heat. Pour about 1/3 cup of the batter into the pan. Immediately lift the pan and rotate it carefully to move the batter into a thin circle.
- Cook until the batter sets in the middle, about 2 minutes. Using a spatula, carefully flip the crepe over and cook for 30 more seconds until bubbles form. Remove from the pan and repeat with the rest of the batter.
- Serve with strawberries and vanilla coconut yogurt, if desired.

Notes
My Top Tip: Use sparkling water instead of tap water. The bubbles in the sparkling water give the crepes a light and fluffy texture. Just be sure to use flavorless sparkling water and to keep it closed until right before you use it.
Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container. They will last for 3–4 days in the fridge. Reheat in the microwave for 1–2 minutes.
Freezing: Cool the crepes, then place them between layers of parchment or wax paper, and put them in an airtight container or freezer-safe bag. You can freeze them for up to 3 months. To reheat, place in the microwave for 1–2 minutes or in the oven at 350ºF until they're hot and heated through, about 5–7 minutes.
Recipe: I adapted this from Nora Cooks, but I added protein powder and made a couple of minor tweaks.
