Instructions

Prepare the batter: In a bowl, whisk together the oat flour, maple syrup, whole egg, and egg whites until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps, creating a light crepe batter.
Heat the skillet: Place a nonstick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with a small amount of oil or butter to prevent sticking.
Cook the crepes: Pour about one-third cup of the batter into the pan and gently swirl it around to coat the bottom evenly. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes until the bottom is lightly golden, then carefully flip the crepe and cook briefly on the other side until just set and slightly golden.
Make the filling: In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt with the granular sweetener and ground cinnamon, mixing well to create a smooth, sweet cinnamon filling.
Assemble the crepes: Spread the cinnamon-yogurt filling evenly over each cooked crepe, then roll them up tightly to resemble cinnamon rolls.
Add the topping: Mix together the remaining sweetener and cinnamon, then sprinkle this cinnamon-sugar mixture generously over the top of the rolled crepes to finish with a classic cinnamon roll flavor.

Notes

You can substitute oat flour with all-purpose flour or whole wheat flour if preferred.
Adjust the amount of sweetener based on your taste or dietary needs.
For a dairy-free version, use a plant-based yogurt.
Cook crepes on medium heat to avoid burning and ensure even cooking.
Serve immediately for best taste and texture.
