Serves: 4 crepes
Syns: 2–3 Syns each (depending on filling, if cheese used as HEA)
Ingredients
For the crepes:
- 100g plain flour (16 Syns)
- 2 large eggs (Free)
- 250ml skimmed milk (part of Healthy Extra A, or 4 Syns)
- Pinch of salt
- Low-calorie cooking spray
For the filling (sweet option):
- 100g light cream cheese (4 Syns)
- 2 tbsp fat-free Greek yogurt (Free)
- 1 tsp sweetener (optional)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
For the filling (savoury option):
- 100g light cream cheese (4 Syns)
- Fresh herbs (parsley, dill, or chives – Free)
- Salt & pepper to taste
- Optional: smoked salmon or lean ham (Free)
Method
- Whisk flour, eggs, milk, and salt until smooth.
- Spray a non-stick frying pan with low-calorie spray and heat.
- Pour in a thin layer of batter, cook 1–2 minutes until golden, flip, and cook the other side. Repeat with remaining batter.
- For the filling: mix cream cheese with yogurt, sweetener & vanilla (sweet) OR with herbs, salt & pepper (savoury).
- Spread filling on each crepe, roll or fold, and serve.
Syn Breakdown (per batch):
- Flour: 16 Syns
- Milk: part of HEA or 4 Syns
- Cream cheese: 4 Syns per 100g
= 20–24 Syns ÷ 4 = 5–6 Syns per crepe (less if using HEA milk and splitting cream cheese more thinly).
If you make mini crepes or stretch the filling, you can get them down to 2–3 Syns each.
