I’m officially addicted to blender protein oat crepes as an ultra-fast, high protein breakfast. Given the number of different possible flavor combinations – they can stay in rotation without getting boring.

Important Recipe Notes
Make sure the pan is warmed up to moderate temperature before spraying with cooking spray and adding the mix (at lest 3-4 minutes). An 8″ nonstick is the perfect size.
Do not over-blend the oat-egg mixture, if you do it will get very frothy, resulting in a more spongy, pancake-like texture.
This recipe makes 4 thick crepes (more on the pancake side), or 5 thinner crepes. Go with 5 if you have the time.
Blender Protein Oat Crepe Flavors
For the standard recipe, simply add 0.5 – 1 tsp. of cinnamon to the blender with the eggs and oats. They taste amazing with fruit – I recommend putting 1/2-1 cup of frozen berries in the microwave for around a minute and then dumping on top with a little more cinnamon.
For chocolatey crepes, reduce or eliminate cinnamon and add 1 tbsp. of dutch process cocoa. If you want to offset the richness of the cocoa, add a small amount of dry sweetener of choice.
For tomato basil crepes, omit the cinnamon and instead add 2 tsp. tomato paste and 2 tsp. dried basil. Italian seasoning would work well too. Really, you could add any spice blend to the mix considering the egg and oat has a neutral flavor. For example pizza, green goddess, nutritional yeast (for a cheesy/nutty flavor).
Filling Ideas
Warmed fresh or frozen fruit – cherries or any type of berries are amazing (adds carbohydrate)
Natural peanut, almond, cashew, or sunflower seed butter (adds fat) or make a topping with water and peanut butter powder
Greek yogurt – for example Oikos Triple Zero (adds protein)
For savory crepes, roll in greens such as arugula, mushrooms, tomato, Canadian bacon
Blender Protein Oat Crepes
Ingredients
- 245g (1 cup) liquid egg whites
- 20g (1/4 cup) old fashioned rolled oats
- 0.5 – 1 tsp. cinnamon (optional, for sweet crepes)
- Olive oil spray
Instructions
- Heat an 8″ nonstick skillet on medium heat. Let it warm up for 3-4 minutes to ensure it’s fully heated.
- While the skillet is heating, combine rolled oats, liquid egg white, and optionally cinnamon in a blender, blend on high for 25-30 seconds. (If blended too long, the mixture will foam).
- Mist the skillet with olive oil (very light) and pour 1/4 of the batter into the pan. Swirl around to make an even disc.
- Allow to cook just enough until you’re able to flip the disc (~1 minute). Flip and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
- Repeat the process with the remaining batter to make three or four additional crepes.
