Actually the best Healthy Protein Crepes made with just 3 ingredients! These protein powder crepes have no flour or butter, and are gluten free, sugar free, low carb and keto friendly too.
Jump to RecipeThere’s a lot of recipes for protein crepes out there, but with the nutrition label and ingredients here, these really are the best.
Ingredients for Healthy Protein Crepes Recipe
- Protein Powder: Needed for high protein crepes! I used Maple Cookie protein powder from HTLT Supps since it’s a whey-caesin and works best for baking.
Quest Nutrition Vanilla is another option.
A different vanilla-y flavor would work well too. - Egg Whites – Even more protein! This also serves as binder in place of whole eggs for a low fat recipe
- Unsweetened Almond Milk
And then a bit of coconut oil or oil spray for cooking.
How to Make 3 Ingredient Protein Crepes
These 3 ingredient protein crepes really are super easy to make as well!
- Whisk all ingredients – protein powder, egg whites and milk in a bowl until smooth.
- Heat nonstick pan or skillet on medium-low, and grease with coconut oil; Swirl to spread.
- Scoop out about ¼ cup mixture at a time onto pan, and swirl around to spread into thin circle.
How to know when Protein Crepes are ready:
Cook protein powder crepes for about 1-2 minutes.
The top surface should be mostly dry, only slightly wet in the very center.
Flip and cook other side another 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Tips for perfect Healthy Protein Powder Crepes
These 3 ingredient protein powder crepes are really quick and easy to make, but you need to keep a few things in mind to get them perfect:
- Whisk batter until smooth, and slightly runny; You should have no lumps, and it should be pourable.
- Use a nonstick pan so the crepes spread evenly and easily and don’t stick to the bottom.
- Medium-low heat to prevent the protein crepes from burning before they cook.
- Grease the pan well – and spread that oil too – again so that the protein crepes don’t stick to the pan.
- Swirl to spread the mixture around quickly to spread into a thin circle; This way you have a thin foldable or rollable crepe
- Let the top surface almost dry out – a sign that the bottom is also cooked completely; This way you won’t have to double flip later.
Alternate Ingredients for High Protein Crepes
Make Whey Protein Crepes
To make whey protein crepes, use Whey protein powder instead of whey-caesin, and also use only 1½-2 Tbsp of milk.
Only add more if the mixture is too thick.
Low Carb and Keto Protein Crepes
For keto or low carb protein crepes, make sure you use a protein powder that meets the macro requirements on the nutrition label.
Milk Options for Crepes
Use regular milk, or other non-dairy milk instead of almond milk.
Topping ideas for Low Calorie Protein Crepes
This is a basic 3 ingredient low calorie protein crepes recipe, so you can add some good healthy toppings for a fancy breakfast. Here’s some options:
- Chocolate Syrup (I recommend using a sugar free one; Lakanto is my go-to brand; The code HAYLSKITCHEN gets you a discount too)
- Nut Butter – Peanut Butter, Almond Butter, Cashew Butter, whatever you please
- Nuts and Seeds – almonds would be a good one!
- Berries – Maybe blueberries or strawberries
- Dried Fruit – Cranberries maybe?
- Crushed Cereal for crunch

[…] Level up your breakfast with some caramel sauce instead of maple syrup. Maybe even atop some protein crepes? […]
Would like to make but I’m vegan so no egg whites for me. Any subs for that?
You can use aquafaba but I’m not sure if it’ll work the same way. Lemme know if you try it out!

I’ve had these on my list forever and just made them! They were so easy and delicious and the macros are amazing. I’ll be making your other crepe recipes ASAP!
The macros were what first got me hooked on these crepes! Can’t wait to see which ones you go for next 🙂
This was super easy to make and super delicious! Thank you so much! I ended up using chocolate protein powder because I am out of vanilla, but still so so good!
Chocolate protein crepes are a whole other vibe, I love the switch up! So happy you enjoyed 🙂
