My Personal Experience

I’ve always loved crepes, but I used to feel guilty about indulging in them when I was trying to stay low-carb. Once I figured out how to make keto crepes using almond flour and other simple ingredients, I was thrilled! These Keto Stuffed Crepes quickly became a staple in my kitchen. I love how versatile they are – you can fill them with your favorite keto-friendly ingredients, and they always turn out delicious! Whether I’m making them for a lazy weekend breakfast or preparing them ahead of time for lunch, they never disappoint. The crepes are so light and tender, and the fillings add the perfect touch of flavor.

Required Equipment

To make these Keto Stuffed Crepes, you’ll need a few essential tools:

1. Non-stick skillet or crepe pan – I’ve tried different pans, but a non-stick skillet makes flipping these crepes a breeze without any mess. A good-quality non-stick skillet ensures the crepes cook evenly and don’t stick to the surface.
2. Spatula – A flexible spatula is perfect for lifting the delicate crepes without tearing them. I find a silicone spatula works best because it doesn’t scratch the surface of the pan.
3. Measuring cups and spoons – Accurate measurements are key when making the crepes and filling. I always have my trusty measuring spoons and cups on hand to ensure everything is just right.
4. Mixing bowls – You’ll need a couple of mixing bowls to prepare the batter and filling. I prefer medium-sized bowls that are easy to handle and make mixing ingredients much easier.
5. Whisk – A whisk is essential for properly blending the ingredients into a smooth batter. I use a handheld whisk, which makes stirring so much easier and faster.

Ingredients & Substitutions

For the crepes:

• Almond flour: This is the base of the crepes and gives them their soft, light texture. If you’re looking for a substitute, you could use coconut flour, but you’d need to adjust the amount since it’s more absorbent.
• Eggs: The eggs give the crepes structure and help bind everything together. There’s no easy egg substitute in this recipe, as eggs are crucial to the crepe’s texture.
• Cream cheese: Adds richness to the crepes. If you don’t have cream cheese, you can use sour cream for a slightly tangy twist.
• Heavy cream: This adds moisture to the batter. You can substitute it with coconut cream if you want a dairy-free option.
• Vanilla extract: For a subtle sweetness. You can omit this if you’re making savory crepes.
• Sweetener: I like to use erythritol or stevia for a sugar-free alternative. You can adjust the sweetness based on your personal preference.
• Salt: Just a pinch to enhance all the flavors.

For the filling (you can customize this!):

• Cream cheese: A creamy base for any sweet filling.
• Spinach and cheese: A savory filling option that’s rich and satisfying.
• Fresh berries: Great for a fruity, sweet filling when paired with cream cheese.

How to Make Keto Stuffed Crepes

1. Prepare the crepe batter: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, eggs, cream cheese, heavy cream, vanilla extract, sweetener, and a pinch of salt. Ensure the mixture is smooth and lump-free.
2. Cook the crepes: Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium-low heat. Lightly grease it with butter or coconut oil. Pour a small amount of the batter into the pan and tilt the pan to spread the batter thinly across the surface. Cook for 1-2 minutes, then carefully flip the crepe and cook for another 1-2 minutes until lightly golden. Set aside on a plate.
3. Prepare the filling: While the crepes are cooling, mix your choice of filling in a separate bowl. For a sweet version, blend cream cheese with your choice of berries. For savory, combine spinach with cheese and season to taste.
4. Assemble the stuffed crepes: Place a spoonful of your filling in the center of each crepe. Fold the sides in and roll up to secure the filling inside.
5. Serve: Optionally, you can top your stuffed crepes with a drizzle of sour cream or a sprinkle of extra sweetener or herbs, depending on whether you went for a sweet or savory option.

Tips for this recipe

• Don’t overcook the crepes: Keep the heat on low to ensure they cook gently and don’t become too crispy.
• Use a non-stick pan: This makes flipping and removing the crepes so much easier.
• Make the batter ahead: You can make the batter ahead and refrigerate it for up to 24 hours.

Optional Additions

• For a savory version, you can add cooked mushrooms or cooked chicken to the filling.
• For sweetness, try adding a bit of cinnamon or nutmeg to the crepe batter.

Serving Ideas

These keto stuffed crepes can be served as a hearty breakfast or a delicious lunch. Pair them with a side of leafy greens or a fresh avocado salad for extra flavor and texture.

Storage Recommendation

These stuffed crepes can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. If you want to reheat them, simply warm them up in a pan over low heat for a few minutes or microwave them for 30 seconds.

Frequently Asked Questions
