The egg white crepes with yogurt cream are amazing: very easy to make, light, and protein-rich. They can be made two-toned, as in this case, simply by adding unsweetened cocoa to half of the batter, and we will fill them with a yogurt and cocoa cream that will win everyone over. The cream resembles Nutella, but it is made with Greek yogurt, unsweetened cocoa, and sweetener: a real treat, trust me.
These crepes are even more light because they use only egg whites, not whole eggs. Furthermore, with the yogurt cream filling, they are light and protein-rich, perfect for athletes or those on a diet. They have few calories and a low carbohydrate content (low carb).

Ingredients
- 3 egg whites egg white (3 eggs without yolk)
- 1/3 cup almond milk (or: soy, milk, oat, rice)
- 1/2 cup flavored oat flour (or: all-purpose flour, rice flour, plain oat flour)
- 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa
- to taste chopped pistachios (optional)
- to taste powdered sugar (optional)
- to taste extra virgin olive oil or butter (for the pan)
- 5.3 oz Greek yogurt
- 4 tsp unsweetened cocoa
- to taste sweetener (or: sugar, erythritol)
Steps
In a bowl, pour the egg whites, milk, and flour, and mix well. Now divide the mixture into two containers: leave one as is, while in the other, add the sifted unsweetened cocoa powder and mix, this way you’ll get a cocoa batter.*
*If you don’t want to make two-tone crepes, you can leave the mixture as is without dividing it or adding cocoa.
Meanwhile, prepare the cream in two minutes: pour the Greek yogurt into a bowl, add the unsweetened cocoa and sweetener (or sugar or erythritol) and mix well.
Cook the crepes: in a pan, heat a knob of butter or a drizzle of EVO oil; pour a ladle of batter and spread it over the entire surface quickly by swirling the pan. Cook for 2 minutes, flip it over, and continue cooking for 1-2 minutes. Repeat the process with all crepes, both simple and cocoa ones.
Now we just need to assemble the crepes: spread the cream along half of a crepe, fold it in half, then fill with more cream and fold again to form a fan. Do the same with the other crepes. Finally, decorate with powdered sugar and chopped pistachios. They are delicious, try them too!
Tips for you
✔ As an alternative to yogurt and cocoa cream, you can use any other spread, for example, protein, or jam (preferably without added sugars).
✔ You can make the crepes all one color: for example, if you prefer them with cocoa, add 10 g of cocoa to the batter without dividing it, or if you want them plain, you can leave them as is without adding anything.
✔ For the egg whites, you can use the carton from the supermarket or separate the eggs (in this case 3) without using the yolks.
✔ It’s normal for them to be very white, this is due to the lack of yolk. You can optionally add a pinch of turmeric.
