new substitution on the crepe front!

Everyone who reads this or ever has should know I have a healthy addiction to crepes. I fill them with nutella, raspberries, Cool Whip, peach butter, and beyond. I mix them with oats, drizzle them with chocolate syrup, stick a scoop of ice cream atop of them... I don't think there is a way I DON'T like to serve them! 


I took a hiatus from making crepes for a couple months (you CAN get burned out, believe it or not), but they have come back with a vengeance and a new variation!


Wait for it.... wait for it...

OAT BRAN CREPES! I think you can pretty much substitute it for anything that calls for any type of flour. I want to make oat bran cakes, oat bran cookies... you get the point. I don't know how everything else will turn out, but the oat bran crepes? Phenom.

Here's the newfangled recipe I used:

1/4 c natural toasted oat bran

1/4 c almond milk (unsweetened)

1 tbsp egg whites

1 tsp vanilla

1 tsp honey

Mix. Spread on skillet. Cook until combined and slightly browned. Flip and repeat.

Serve with natural almond butter, peanut butter, nutella, or whatever you fancy!

Yes, even ice cream. :)

Sometimes eating on the go is inevitable. For a quick-t0-make, delightful but filling snack or breakfast, refer to the following equation:

Yummmm.

If you REALLY want to spice things up, stick some granola or Kashi Go Lean! Almond Flax Crunch (I know. Long name for cereal.) or....

(Why, yes. That is a whole freaking banana.)

I prefer to spread my PB and fold the tortilla in half and stick it on my Mini Griddler, quesadilla style. Makes it last a little longer, and you get to enjoy the

flavors more than a straight-up roll.

And yes. I think tortilla is (has) a flavor.

You're welcome. :)
