Imagine the warm, paper-thin crepes filled with berries, muesli, and sweet jam. It is an absolute delight! It feels like having a delicious ice cream. This is a great and delicious way of eating mueslie yogurt for breakfast, especially in the cold winter!
Why you will love this breakfast crepe
I love starting my day with oat yogurt topped with a variety of colorful fruits, especially during the summer months. It’s a hassle-free wholesome breakfast that I enjoy, but during the winter, I find myself craving warmer foods. I’ve been thinking of ways to enjoy my favorite oat yogurt breakfast during the colder months, and here’s what I came up with.
Easy and quick
This recipe is easy and quick. It requires only 3 ingredients to make the crepes – egg, flour, and your choice of milk. You only need to make crepes to wrap your oat yogurt in a warm crepe.
Contrast and harmony
The interesting thing about this dish is the mix of contrasts – tangy Greek yogurt vs sweet jam and fruit, soft crepe vs crunchy chewy rolled oat, cold yogurt vs warm crepes. However, these contrasts create a harmonious blend. It feels like you are eating a delicious and healthy ice cream, but the warm crepe makes you feel warm and fuzzy.
Deliciously Sweet but healthy
Once the crepes are made, roll the oat yogurt with your favorite fruit and your choice of sweetener such as honey, maple syrup, or jam. I used homemade apricot jam. It is delicious and a great food pairing. Especially I highly recommend using jam.
Key ingredients to make breakfast crepe
☑️Crepe
Making crepes is easy. There are many different recipes for making crepes, but the main basic ingredients include oil or butter, eggs, and flour. The crepe batter should be thin and watery to create paper-thin crepe rolls. You can use plain flour or buckwheat flour.
☑️Greek Yogurt Muesli filling
You can choose your own muesli filling. I use unsweetened Greek or plain yogurt with different types of fruit, especially berries. If I also add other seasonal fruits such as apples or mangoes, I cut them into small bite-sized pieces.
☑️Sweetner (fruit jam or honey)
I’ve tried using honey or jam, and both work well. However, I really prefer fruit jam, which pairs perfectly with the slightly tangy filling from the unsweetened but healthy Greek yogurt. I highly recommend using your favorite type of jam. I used homemade apricot jam that I made with dried apricots for the crepe breakfast. It was divine!
