Ingredients
-
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
-
½ cup almond flour
-
1 tablespoon coconut flour
-
4 large eggs
-
¼ cup heavy cream
-
2¼ teaspoons Truvia or preferred keto sweetener
-
Butter or oil for greasing the pan
Instructions
-
Place the softened cream cheese, eggs, almond flour, coconut flour, heavy cream, and sweetener into a blender.
-
Blend everything together until the mixture becomes smooth and fully combined. The batter should be thin and lump-free.
-
Heat an 8-inch skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
-
Once the pan is hot, pour just under ¼ cup of batter into the skillet. Immediately swirl the pan so the batter spreads across the bottom, forming a thin crepe about 6 inches wide.
-
Cook the crepe until the edges begin to turn lightly golden and the surface looks set. Use a spatula to gently loosen the edges.
-
Lift the pan slightly and shake it to help release the crepe from the surface.
-
Carefully flip the crepe and cook the other side until lightly browned.
-
Transfer the finished crepe onto a plate. If stacking several crepes, place a piece of parchment paper between them so they do not stick together.
-
Continue cooking the remaining batter in the same way until all crepes are done.
-
Fill the crepes with your favorite keto toppings and enjoy immediately.
Why I Love This Recipe
One of the best things about this recipe is how simple the batter is. Everything blends together in minutes, which makes preparation quick and easy.
The texture is also fantastic. Even though these crepes are low in carbs, they stay soft and flexible, just like traditional crepes.
Another reason this recipe is a favorite is how customizable it is. You can turn these crepes into a sweet breakfast with berries and whipped cream, or transform them into a dessert by adding sugar-free chocolate or keto lemon curd.
Tips & Tricks
Blend the batter well. A smooth batter ensures the crepes cook evenly and stay thin without lumps.
Use a nonstick skillet. Crepes are delicate, so a good nonstick pan makes flipping much easier.
Keep the heat moderate. Too much heat can cause the crepes to brown too quickly before they fully cook.
Separate crepes with parchment. If stacking them, parchment paper helps prevent sticking.
Adjust sweetness if needed. You can add a little more sweetener if you prefer sweeter crepes for dessert.
