Ingredients

Directions

  1. Crack the eggs into a medium mixing bowl and whisk vigorously until the yolks and whites are fully combined and the mixture is slightly frothy.
  2. Heat a small non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and lightly grease with a non-stick cooking spray or a tiny amount of oil.
  3. Pour a small amount of the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to spread it thinly and evenly across the bottom to form a small crepe.
  4. Cook for about 1 to 2 minutes, or until the edges begin to lift and the bottom is lightly golden.
  5. Gently flip the crepe using a spatula and cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute until just set.
  6. Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate and repeat the process with the remaining egg mixture, greasing the pan lightly between each crepe if necessary.
  7. Stack the finished crepes on a plate and serve immediately with your desired low-calorie toppings.
