High Protein Crepes
Fall is coming, and our family is focused on starting the day with protein for long-lasting energy. It also takes the body more effort to digest protein, which means that eating it first thing in the morning accelerates metabolism for the whole day.
We have been enjoying this simple recipe that allows us to get creative with toppings and have breakfast feel different every day.

1/4 cup coconut flour
1/2 cup arrowroot powder
1/4 cup almond flour
4 eggs
