    A rockstar breakfast of gluten free crepes with a sweet yogurt and blueberry filling that makes your tastebuds happy and your heart healthy thanks to the oats and dairy. These easy crepes are an exciting addition to your mornings.

    There are some weeks that are filled with kitchen fails. Unfortunately, I'm having one of those weeks.

    Brownie Fail

    I guess that comes with the territory, and it does make for a little entertainment - even if it's after the fact... after I've cleaned up the disaster(s) and dried my tears

    Overnight Coffee Oats_21

    Anywho, I've had multiple botched recipes this week in my quest to come up with entries in the Recipe ReDux Oats + Dairy: A Powerful Combination recipe contest.

    Crepe Fail

    • Breakfast Brownies... don't even ask...
    • Tomato Pie... delicious but a not pretty gloopy mess. When I muster up the strength, I'll go for round two.
    • and Crepes. All fails.

    Fortunately, these Crepes were so easy to make, that with determination on my side, I could take a second third crack at the recipe and come out on the winning end.

    A bonus for having the recipe not turn out the first two attempts is that I can figure out exactly what not to do and let everyone know.

    Blueberry and Yogurt Crepes from Living Well Kitchen

    Here are my tips:

    • Preheat the skillet. Basically, you'll just put the skillet over medium and let it heat while you make the crepe batter {which takes like 2 minutes}.
    • I found that adding butter before the first crepe really prevented sticking. {See picture above. That was without butter}. Just the first crepe needed the butter. The remaining crepes did fine without the addition of butter between each crepe. However, butter is optional if you are totally against it {it adds less than 20 extra calories per serving, which is totally worth it in my opinion}.
    • Don't let your crepe batter sit for a long time after blending. The best version of crepes were made immediately after blending the ingredients. That's why you preheat the skillet before even making the crepe batter - you want the skillet to be ready right after the batter is made.
    • Transfer the batter to a pourable cup for an easier crepe making experience. I tried pouring it from the mini food processor bowl and that was a terrible mistake.
    • The recipe will make about 7/8 cup of batter, so to make four crepes, you'll use about 3-4 tablespoons batter per crepe. This makes four (5-6 inch sized) crepes.
    • Once you pour the batter in the preheated skillet, you might want to take a fork or spatula to help push some of the batter around the skillet to evenly distribute. It's a runny batter but some of the oats didn't feel like moving, so I found it best to push them around a little with my fork.
    • Let the crepe cook on one side for about 30 seconds, until tiny bubbles form all over the surface. Then carefully flip and cook on the other side until done. One crepe will take about 60 seconds to make total.

    And there you have all the helpful tips learned courtesy of multiple crepe-making fails. To be honest, I was quite frustrated {who wouldn't be?}. But now I'm not mad because if you follow those tips, you don't have to make the same mistakes as me.

    Mistakes for the win! because you really need to try these fancy looking breakfast treats that are easy to make and really good for you.

    Thanks to a combination of two of my favorite things: oats and dairy, you've got a rockstar breakfast that keeps your tastebuds and heart happy.

    Oats give you the fiber that fills you up and helps keep you healthy. The dairy {both the milk in the crepes and the yogurt in the filling} give you protein, vitamins, minerals, and probiotics.

    There are two teaspoons of maple syrup for the entire recipe, and even that is optional. Otherwise, there is no added sugar.

    Essentially, this is a wonderful breakfast that will make you look forward to waking up in the morning. {These can be ready in under 20 minutes. You can also make the crepes ahead of time and keep them refrigerated for up to 3 days. Store the yogurt filling separately. The crepes are yummy when they're warm and when they're cold}.

    Ingredients

    For the crepes:

    • 1/2 cup old fashioned oats
    • 1/2 cup milk
    • 1 egg
    • 1 teaspoon maple syrup
    • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 1/8 teaspoon salt
    • 1 teaspoon butter

    For the filling:

    • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
    • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
    • 1 teaspoon maple syrup
    • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 1/2 cup blueberries

    Instructions

    For the crepes:

    • Preheat a small {8 inch} skillet over medium heat.
    • Add the oats to a food processor or blender. Blend into "oat flour" - should take about 15 seconds.
    • Add the milk, egg, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt to the blender or food processor. Blend until smooth.
    • Add the butter to the skillet. Once it has melted, pour about 3-4 tablespoons of crepe batter into the skillet. Cook until tiny bubbles form over entire surface {about 30 seconds}, carefully flip and cook another 20-35 seconds until second side is done.
    • Repeat with remaining batter - should make 4 crepes total.

    For the filling:

    • Stir together the plain Greek yogurt, lemon juice, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until completely combined. Gently stir in blueberries.

    To make the crepes:

    • Evenly fill the crepes with the yogurt blueberry mixture, and enjoy!

    Notes

    *Use gluten free oats for gluten sensitivities and/or lactose free milk for lactose sensitivities.

      Meme, I know exactly how you feel about kitchen fails! I made a veggie cake that was absolutely disgusting and had to throw the whole thing out. Thanks for the crepe tips! I don't make them that often precisely because they tend to stick to my pan too quickly and I get impatient. These yogurt blueberry cakes look yummy!

        Thanks Lisa! Throwing it away is the absolute WORST ugh! I usually get impatient and frustrated if one doesn't work, but these turned out really well once I got the hang of them

      Yea..I'm experiencing kitchen fail right now. I only have 3 more days to make this happen! Thanks for sharing these useful tips. I'm guilty of letting the batter sit longer than it should as well. Crepes made out of oats! I like it 😉

        I'm so guilty of getting side tracked and letting the batter sit so I'm glad I figured out that it didn't work well here. Your Mexican Oat Pudding looks incredible! Those spicy nut clusters… mmm mmm mmm
