Autumn Apple & Cinnamon Protein Crepes (32g Protein)

Published: 8/10/2026

A high-protein adaptation of Finnish letut. These crepes feature the characteristic lacy-edged texture of the Nordic original but are reinforced with whey protein for fitness goals.

Ingredients (4 servings)

• 2 large eggs
• 1/2 cup (120 ml) egg whites
• 1/2 cup (55 g) vanilla whey protein powder
• 1/2 cup (120 g) plain Greek yogurt
• 1 tsp (3 g) ground cinnamon
• 2 tart apples, diced
• 1 tsp (5 g) butter

Instructions

1. Whisk the eggs, egg whites, protein powder, and yogurt until a thin batter forms.
2. Sauté the diced apples with cinnamon in a small pan with the butter until soft.
3. Heat a non-stick crepe pan over medium heat. Pour in a thin layer of batter, tilting the pan to spread it to the edges.
4. Cook for 1–2 minutes until the edges are golden and lacy. Flip and cook for 30 seconds.
5. Fill each crepe with the warm apple mixture.

Pro Tips

• Rest the Batter: Let the batter rest for 10 minutes before cooking to allow the protein powder to hydrate, preventing a grainy texture.
