Why you will love these Tiramisu Protein Crepes
Whilst protein powder has the tendency to make things dry, dense or even chalky, these Tiramisu Protein Crepes are far from it. They are delicious, don’t fall apart and have an amazing texture just like normal authentic crepes.
The crepes have an amazing coffee flavour and are filled with high protein vanilla yogurt and topped with cocoa powder to recreate the classic tiramisu flavours and layers.
This recipe serves 1 and makes 4-5 Pan Sized Filled Crepes.

Ingredients & Substitutions for Tiramisu Protein Crepes
All purpose flour – This is the main dry ingredient, you could sub for spelt flour, oat flour, gluten free flour or even buckwheat flour. However the texture may change depending on the flour used.
Protein Powder – This is the second main ingredient, it adds protein, flavour without adding extra sweeteners. If you do not want to use protein I would suggest using equal parts flour. I used the vegan Iced Mocha Latte Protein from MacroMike. use my code amb-eliyaeats to save 10%. (I am a proud MacroMike ambassador!)
Espresso Shot- or instant coffee dissolved in a little bit of hot water. Can use decaf or omit completely if using coffee flavoured protein
Egg- Essential for the texture and flavour. I have not tested these crepes with flax eggs or a flax egg substitute.
Soy Milk- You can use any milk or plant milk of your choice- almond milk works great as well
Yogurt- I use a high protein vanilla flavoured greek yogurt however plain greek yogurt will work super well. I use Yopro High Protein Vanilla Greek yogurt. You can also use a dairy free yogurt.
Maple Syrup- Just a dash is used to sweeten the yogurt filling. I use a sugar free version.
Cocoa Powder- For topping
Tips
Use an electric whisk or blender to ensure a smooth batter – can use a standard hand whisk but make sure the batter is smooth
Let the Crepe batter sit for 5 minutes in the fridge to settle and thicken slightly – I like to do this while I wait for my pan to heat up
Lift the pan off the heat before pouring the batter onto the pan (so it doesn’t set), then swirl the pan until the batter covers the whole pan, and then place back on the heat
Cook on low-medium heat – For 1-2 minutes per side
Use an extra egg white in the batter (just use less liquid) for extra protein
Storage And Meal Prep
Fridge- store in an airtight container for up to 5 days
Freezer- Wrap crepes in parchment paper and store in a larger meal prep container or freezer bag. Freeze for up to 1 month.
Reheating- heat in the microwave for 15-45 seconds, or in a frying pan over medium heat.
Meal prep- To meal prep these just multiply the ingredients by the number of serves you would like to prep
