Lemon Protein Crepes

Pancake day is just around the corner, and thankfully you can enjoy delicious, authentic-tasting crêpes, with added protein! American pancakes tend to have a raising agent such as bicarb, but French crêpes are wafer thin and light.

The Lemon Cheesecake Whey adds just a subtle hint of lemon for that classic pancake day vibe, but of course, you can change it up and top with whatever you fancy!

Serves 2 (4x 24cm crêpes per person)

INGREDIENTS

• 100g plain flour
• 1 tbsp caster sugar
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 2 scoops (60g) Efectiv Lemon Cheesecake Whey
• 2 medium eggs
• 350ml soya milk

METHOD

- In a large mixing bowl add all the dry ingredients and mix well.
- Make a well in the middle of the dry mix and add in the two eggs, whisking them in.
- Gradually add in the milk, whisking to combine until a runny (single-cream-like) consistency has formed. Let the batter stand at room temperature for around 15 minutes until it bubbles on top.
- Heat up a 24cm non-stick crêpe pan, drop a ladle of batter into the centre of the pan and swirl until it has spread out and evenly coated the pan with a thin layer.
- Cook for around 1–2 minutes and then flip and cook for 1 minute more.
- Repeat until all the batter is used (you should have 8 crêpes in total).

Top with berries and icing sugar, freshly squeezed lemon, or your favourite toppings.
