After about 30-60 seconds, or once the underside is golden brown, flip the crêpe.
Let the other side cook briefly.

FAQ
Does crêpe batter without sugar even taste good? Absolutely! The batter gets light sweetness from the applesauce, and the toppings do the rest.
How can I fill crêpes? Sweet (with nut butter, fruit, ice cream, jam, chocolate spread, or cinnamon) or savory (sautéed mushrooms and onions, fresh arugula, tomatoes with balsamic dressing, hummus, or guacamole).
Where do crêpes come from? Crêpes originate from France, specifically Brittany. This super tasty recipe, however, comes straight from the Vetain kitchen.
Can I make the protein crêpes without protein powder? Yes – just replace the protein powder with flour. They won’t be protein crêpes anymore, but still delicious!
Do these crêpes have a lot of protein? Yes – our crêpes are high in protein thanks to the protein powder. They’re more nutrient-dense, more filling, and great for your muscles compared to regular crêpes.
