I struggle eating egg whites, but this recipe is so good. Thank you for this recipe.
Made these with some vanilla extract and some ground cinnamon. So good.
They didn’t look as pretty as yours, but I also didn’t notice them getting crunchy like you mentioned.
Thank you for sharing.
I’m making them again tomorrow to help fuel my marathon.
So glad you enjoyed!
Great recipe can’t wait to try it out.
Can I use two whole eggs? Including the yellow? Will that change the consistency of the crepe?
The consistence will not be the same with two whole eggs vs just the egg whites.
Excellent recipe! I filled the pancakes with banana and drizzled a low calorie blueberry syrup over them. Delectable and love that its only 2 ingredients. Great protein treat!
Hi! Do you know if this will work with vegan protein powder? Or does it have to be whey?
Vegan protein powder should work great.
AMAZING! Great texture, easy and a fun “treat” to replace pancakes. I am thrilled with this recipe and the possibilities; love that it is gluten and dairy free and high protein. I like these even better than the 2 ingredient banana pancake recipe that is popular. Thank you!
Soo glad you love them soo much!
Amazing and SO easy!!
So glad you love them.
these are great! i always have so much trouble with flipping pancakes and crepes but these were surprisingly easy to flip and came out beautifully! i love how its so low calorie and high protein so you have so much room to choose whatever topping your heart desires. thank you for sharing!
SO glad you loved it!
Made these today for lunch! They were awesome. I don’t have nonstick pans and only use cast iron. The cast iron worked great, keep your temp to a minimum and I always use no salt butter in my pan. I will be making these again!
Amazing to hear, thank you!
