keto crepes
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Intensity: Moderate
Ingredients:
- 4 large eggs
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup almond flour
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened almond milk (or any low-carb milk)
- 1 tablespoon melted butter or coconut oil
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- Butter or oil for greasing the pan
Instructions:
- Prepare Batter:
- In a blender or food processor, combine the eggs, softened cream cheese, almond flour, almond milk, melted butter or coconut oil, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth and well combined. Let the batter rest for a few minutes to thicken slightly.
- Preheat Pan:
- Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with butter or oil.
- Cook Crepes:
- Pour a small amount of the batter (about 1/4 cup) into the heated pan, swirling it around to spread the batter evenly and create a thin crepe. Cook for about 2 minutes or until the edges start to lift and the bottom is lightly golden.
- Flip and Cook Other Side:
- Carefully flip the crepe using a spatula and cook the other side for an additional 1-2 minutes until cooked through and lightly golden. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as needed between crepes.
- Serve Warm:
- Remove the cooked keto crepes from the pan and keep them warm while you cook the rest. You can stack them on a plate with parchment paper between each crepe to prevent sticking.
- Fill and Fold:
- Once all the crepes are cooked, fill them with your desired keto-friendly fillings such as sugar-free whipped cream, berries, sugar-free chocolate spread, or a combination of cream cheese and stevia. Fold or roll the crepes as desired.
- Garnish (Optional):
- Garnish the keto crepes with a dusting of powdered low-carb sweetener like powdered erythritol or a sprinkle of cinnamon before serving.
Note: These keto crepes are versatile and can be enjoyed as a sweet breakfast or dessert option while following a low-carb or ketogenic diet. Experiment with different fillings and toppings to create your favorite keto-friendly crepe creations!
