Egg Crepes
 

hi there, first post, so start the screming im in the wrong group or something,

but im doing Atkins and so here goes:

tired of always eating scrambled eggs and bacon for breakie???

I am

so my wife found this recipe in a book called 7 days of low carb eating, i made them last nite and ate them this morning and they were good, very good

they are crepes people!!!

heres how to make em:

small batch: 2 eggs, 2 tbsp heavy cream, 1 tbsp butter or oil
whisk all together, heat pan, lightly butter, pour in small amounts so crepes are thin, whirl them around sop they cover the bottom of an 8" pan
cook till brown on one side about 2 minutes or so, then flip and do the same,

roll em up and eat em!!! or as i do sprinkle with cinnamon and fake sugar for a real treat, maybe even some Atkins pancake sauce !!!

carb count for above recipe eggs 0.6g each, cream 35% 0.5 tbsp, and whatever else u put on them,

i had a whole satisfying meal (doubled the recipe) for around 3.8g carbs total, my eggs listed 0g for carbs

Check out the recipe forums on here. There is an entire forum devoted to breakfast ideas and another to snack ideas.

These sound good, I especially like the cinnamon idea. If you used sugar free pancake syrup, you might not even need to use the Splenda! hehe, less carbs. I think I will give this a whirl this week.

I just tried these and they are very tasty, i added some cinnamon into the batter before cooking yum!, i will be using this recipie again.

These sound DELICIOUS! I LOVE LOVE crepes and can't wait to try!

Thanks for the recipe shiNer45!!!

These are even better if you put a little softened cream cheese or sour cream inside with some sugar free apricot preserves. MMMMmmmm....blintzes!

Now that sounds REALLY good. I think I will have to try!

I have made egg crepes using water instead of cream. They came out great! I always like berries in crepes. So I usually microwave up some unsweetened raspberries (or whatever I have) add a drop of Sweetzfree.

If one uses dairy products I can imagine that creme fraiche on top would be amazingly good.

*toys with the idea of dabbling in dairy again*

I'm going to make these for lunch tomorrow and fill them with blueberries and whipped cream.


*fleh*
*drool*

My mom use to make us creaps for Bf when I was a kid, (we called them rollem ups :lol: ) hot out of the pan we would put butter and jelly on them rollem up and eat. Yummmm I am going to make these for sure. Thanks for bringing back some great memories.

i just made these they were lush had them with cinnamon bit of sweetener and a dash of double cream on top mmmmmmm thx for the recipe.

Hmmm ... I'm thinking breakfast wrap filled with a little salmon salad. I wonder if they're stronger if you cook them the night before and use them cold?

All of a sudden, I'm envious of Ontarians - here in Victoria, I can't find anything heavier than whipping cream, and that has too many stabilizers added! I've been using 18% table cream, but I'd love to find a source for 35% cream!!!

hi glendarc you dont have to use cream if you dont want to i have used water in place of the cream they still came out nice

These sound good but are they actually filling??

I have 3 egg crepes for breakfast (2 eggs) and I'm usually full for 4-5 hours!
