🗝️ Key ingredients & substitutions

- Cottage Cheese: Adds creaminess without extra carbs. You can substitute with Greek yogurt if desired, but cottage cheese keeps it light.
- Almond Flour: Keeps it low-carb and adds a subtle nutty flavor.
- Granulated Sweetener: Keeps the crepes sweet without sugar. Feel free to use any keto-friendly sweetener you prefer.
- Vanilla Extract: Adds a touch of warm flavor and sweetness.
- Keto Nutella: The star of the show! Regular Nutella is fine if you aren’t keto, but my sugar-free version will keep it low-carb.
- Fresh Strawberries: Adds juicy sweetness. Other fresh berries like blueberries or raspberries work great too.
🥣 How to make keto strawberry nutella crepes
- Blend: In a blender, combine eggs and cottage cheese until smooth. This makes the batter super creamy and ready for the next step.
- Whisk Ingredients: Pour the egg mixture into a mixing bowl and whisk with almond flour, sweetener, vanilla extract, almond milk, melted butter, and a pinch of salt.
- Preheat Pan: Heat a nonstick pan or crepe pan over medium-high heat, and spray with oil to prevent sticking. I used a brush to make sure the entire pan was covered.
- Pour & Tilt: Add 1/3 cup of crepe batter to the center of the pan, then tilt in a circular motion to spread the batter thinly across the bottom.
- Cook & Flip: Let it cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges lift slightly, then flip and cook the other side until golden brown spots appear.
- Warm Nutella: In a microwave-safe bowl, warm keto Nutella until smooth and spreadable.
- Assemble Crepe: Spread 2 tablespoons of Nutella over half the crepe, layer with sliced strawberries, fold into a semi-circle, then fold again for a triangle.
- Garnish & Enjoy: Dust with powdered sweetener, add a dollop of whipped cream, or more fresh berries if desired, and dig in!
🪄 Recipe notes & tips
- Thin Pancakes: For the best crepes, keep the batter thin and tilt the pan to spread evenly. This helps create delicate, thin crepes that fold beautifully.
- First Crepe Test: The first crepe might be a little tricky (think of it as a practice round)! Don’t worry if it’s not perfect – the rest will turn out great.
- Warm Nutella: Heating the Nutella makes it spread easier and gives a silky layer over the crepes. A quick zap in the microwave does the trick.
- Don’t Overcrowd: Cook one crepe at a time for consistent results. This gives each crepe the love it deserves!
- Serve Warm: These crepes taste best fresh and warm, so enjoy them as soon as you’re done cooking.
✨ Variations
- Berry Blast: Swap strawberries with mixed berries like blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries for a colorful twist.
- Chocolate Lovers: Add a sprinkle of cocoa powder to the batter for a hint of chocolatey flavor in each crepe.
- Nut Butter Twist: Replace Nutella with peanut butter or almond butter if you’re craving something different but still creamy and delicious.
- Strawberry Banana: Add thin slices of banana alongside strawberries for an extra layer of fruity sweetness.
- Savory Style: Skip the Nutella and berries, and fill with cheese and ham or spinach and feta for a savory crepe option.
- Cinnamon Spice: Add a pinch of cinnamon and nutmeg to the batter for a warm, spiced flavor perfect for cozy mornings.
🫙 Storage instructions
- Refrigerate: Place leftover crepes in an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Separate with Paper: Stack crepes with a sheet of parchment paper between each to prevent sticking.
- Reheat: Warm in a nonstick pan over medium-low heat for a minute or so on each side, or microwave briefly.
- Freeze: For longer storage, freeze in plastic wrap with a layer of parchment paper between each crepe. Just thaw and reheat when ready to enjoy!
🍽️ What to serve with strawberry nutella crepes
- Whipped Cream: A dollop of whipped cream makes these crepes feel extra indulgent – perfect for special occasions.
- Ice Cream: Add a scoop of vanilla or chocolate ice cream for a classic pairing, or try a tropical twist with my pineapple coconut ice cream! The hot crepes with cold ice cream are a dreamy combo.
- Powdered Sweetener: Dust with a touch of powdered sweetener for a simple, elegant finish.
- Nuts: Sprinkle on some chopped hazelnuts or try my sweet roasted cinnamon almonds for added crunch and flavor.
