Sweet breakfast ideas

Together with our low carb almond flour crepes recipe, I have made for you quite a few sweet breakfast healthy recipes you can alternate for your family.

Our pancakes are the best from the whole world of keto and a favorite of mine.

Always stored in our pantry is crunchy granola, which my daughter adores.

Following, we have bread pudding, french toast, candied bacon, sweet chaffle-waffle, or a beautiful rainbow chia pudding.

In case you are craving sweet bread, we have that as well. The most popular Challah bread, together with brioche bread, is always kept in the freezer just in case.

What is the difference between Crepes and Pancakes?

Traditional crepes, very popular in France and Central Europe, are much more liquid. They are way thinner, lighter and larger. The thinner the crepes are, the best and tastier they are.

If you have never made crepes, now is the time.

Crepes can also be eaten savory and are called Galettes.

Pancakes are very popular in the US and are eaten mostly for breakfast as a sweet option sprinkled with maple syrup. They are much smaller in size, thicker, and fluffier due to the baking powder added.

What are keto crepes?

Keto crepes are made with ingredients that are not only part of our lifestyle but much healthier than ordinary wheat flour. Combining ingredients listed in the recipe, such as almond flour, butter, eggs, and cream cheese, allows you to get the perfect batter crepes.

How to make keto crepes?

Mixing the crepe batter and pouring it thinly on a nonstick pan allow you to make the thinnest crepes you can only dream of.

Remember to look at the video I have made for you to see how easy it is to make keto crepes using our recipe.

How many carbs are in egg crepe?

The carb content of our low carb crepes is the best surprise.

One whole crepe gives you only 0,2 grams of net carbs per serving.

Imagine having 10 crepes and counting only 2 grams of carbs and net carb for it. Isn’t that fabulous?

Best Almond flour keto crepe recipe

As you already know, almond flour and almond meal is my best friend in all keto recipes. And it did not disappoint me even here. Out of all the variations of keto flour, the almond type is my favorite.

Low carb cream cheese crepes made with almond flour is a great recipe and the best invention in our kitchen. It is eaten every time I make some. And it is a must as after-dinner deserts replacement.

Our keto crepes are light and delicious.

What sweetener to use?

Here comes the best part. You do not need any sweetener in our recipe. Even though I have added just a bit and a pinch of dry stevia I make every year, it is not required.

My daughter enjoys crepes without anything, so a bit of sweetness is added.

But if you plan to make the sweet filling, there would be enough of sweetness.

And if you are preparing savory crepes, the sweetener is not needed at all.

But just in case you insist, any of our suggested sweeteners work in this recipe.

Keto crepe filling ideas

There are so many choices apart from keto Nutella, crepes can be filled with. Sweet or savory, dinner or dessert. I will give you a few ideas for you to start experimenting with.

STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS FOR EASY ALMOND FLOUR KETO CREPES

First step: Whisk eggs

Add whole eggs to the bowl and mix them until whites and yolks are incorporated. Do not worry that your crepes will be too eggy. With my precise combination of all ingredients, they will become perfect.

Second step: The rest of the ingredients

Once the eggs are thoroughly mixed, add all ingredients until fully combined.

Sometimes, if either butter or creme cheese is not at room temperature, your batter might be clumpy. In this case, just place the mixture into the microwave for a few seconds and mix thoroughly once again.

Third step: Stevia

Adding dry stevia, which we usually make at home, will help in achieving that pinch of sweetness you are looking for in keto crepes. Since dry stevia is extremely sweet, you only need a tiny bit that will not be visible at the end. Do not worry about the natural green color.

Fourth step: Transfer crepe batter

For easy cooking, I always transfer the batter into a taller container. This will allow me to scoop it onto the pan easier and mix it fully from time to time. Let the batter sit 5 minutes before cooking.

Fifth step: Prepare for cooking

Once the batter is transferred, prepare the plate on which you will place crepes. Get your smaller spoon for scooping, a flat spatula for flipping, oil, and nonstick pan, and we are ready to start.

At the same time, switch on the heat and let the non-stick pan heat up fully.

Once fully heated, add a tiny bit of oil just to cover the pan. Only add a little, otherwise, your crepes will be too oily.

Sixth step: Scoop

With your small spoon, scoop the batter onto the preheated pan with a bit of oil. Cook the crepe on medium heat.

pouring batter

Seventh step: Spread

Tilt the pan, and using a circular motion, spread the batter throughout the pan evenly to achieve a thin layer of almond flour crepe. Please have a look at the video for a better understanding.

Eighth step: Flip

When you see the edges browning, that is the time to flip the crepe. Gently release one edge. Gently flip the crepes and let them brown on the other side. Use your fingers so that you can slide in the flat spatula.

First crepe is always a bit hard, but later on you get into it.

Once you get to a chef level, you can skip the spatula and flip the crepes in the air.

I have yet to achieve this. I am not even trying it. But maybe one day.

It takes about 2-3 minutes for one crepe. Keep placing crepes on top of each other.

Tips for the best keto crepes recipe

  • Use a non-stick pan – Always use a nonstick pan. I tried this recipe on several occasions with an old pan and could not achieve the crepes as thin as those are. But a non-stick pan is here a must.
  • Heat the pan fully –Your pan needs to be fully heated before you add the oil. Otherwise, your crepes will stick, and you will not be able to flip them.
  • Mix – Mix the batter in between. It happens that almond flour might slowly settle at the bottom of the jar.
  • Oil – Use just the right amount of oil. Too much will make crepes too oily. Just a little bit of oil will go a long way.
  • Butter – can be replaced with coconut oil.
  • Swirl – Swirl the batter on the pan correctly. Pour the batter in the middle, let it sit for a second, and then spread it throughout the pan evenly with a circular motion.
  • Flip – Once the edges of the crepes start to brown, it is time to flip them.
  • Too Dry – add a few drops of almond milk.
  • Too clumpy – One of the ingredients needed to be at room temperature or soft enough. This happens mostly when either butter or cream cheese has a different temperature. Just place the batter for a few seconds into a microwave and mix again to get the smooth crepe batter.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

How to serve keto crepes?

For a full-blast dessert, you can serve our crepes with a scoop of coconut ice cream with dry raspberries and topped up with one of our homemade sweeteners such as simple syrup, maple syrup, chocolate sauce, condensed milk, or caramel sauce.

To make savory version, our french fries or pumpkin fries are great as a side dish.

Can I swap almond flour with coconut flour?

Even though I do not recommend this, if you are allergic to nuts, you can replace them with coconut flour. Coconut flour is very dry and makes the batter pretty thick. Just make sure you add only about 1/4 of the amount.

Can you make keto pancakes from keto crepes?

First, I want to mention that you can not make the best crepes out of pancakes batter. Vice versa applies to making the best pancakes out of crepes batter.

I have made a special recipe for keto pancakes if you want to try it. This recipe gives you the best pancakes you can imagine in your lifestyle.

But if you insist on adding a bit more almond flour and baking powder for fluffiness, you can try making pancakes.

Just remember to cook them longer, so the batter inside is fully cooked.

How to store easy keto crepes?

This tip has helped keep my crepes from drying. If I make 4x the amount I normally do, I cover the whole tower with parchment paper while they are still warm. This will help me keep them soft for the future. They sometimes dry on the edges if I let them sit and cool.

After eating, I just store whatever is left in the fridge for up to 2-3 days. No longer.

Those crepes can be made ahead and stored for later. Even a day or two in advance.

Can you freeze keto almond flour crepes?

I make 2x the batch, sometimes 4x the batch. Make it once, separate it into small portions, and then place into the freezer.

Since it does not last long in the fridge, I pack them into 6-10pc batches. My daughter has it almost every evening as a dessert after dinner and takes it to school. She is not very much into sweet dishes, but this one, she never gets tired.

    • Dear Kylee,

      I have placed the items just below the recipe from Amazon site. Unfortunately the exact one I am using, I was not able to find on amazon.com and therefore have used something similar. If you want the exact one, the link is in my German and Slovak version of the recipe. Hope it helps.

  1. They look great, but I am more a salty crepe person. Can I leave the sweetener out and put a but of salt in, or would that change the consistency of the crepe?

    • Dear Anne,

      Thanks for that. I need it once a while. Since I do it all in 3 languages, it really gets mixed up in my head from time to time.

      Have a nice day

      You have no idea what are you missing in never trying Crepes. They are out of this world. And this version is without flour and super healthy as well.

  2. These look great! Do you also have a tried and true recipe for low-carb pancakes? I have yet to find one that taste anything like real pancakes!

    • Dear Mom2ka

      Unfortunately, I do not since we do live in Europe and pancakes are not very popular here and therefore we do not make them. but I would suggest this same recipe, just make it much thicker. That should do the magic.

    • Dear Nikolina,

      Sure, you can sub with coconut flour if you do not mind the taste. Just be very careful not adding a lot, since coconut flour is very dry and soaks much more liquid as Almond flour does. I would even give less than half the amount. Try and see if consistency is similar to the one in the video, so you can still make really thin Crepes with it.

      Happy cooking

      Zuzana

    • Dear Capsule,

      I am so sorry it did not work for you. Have you used a nonstick pan? It does not really work with any other. Have a look at the video, maybe you will spot something a bit different then what you have done.

  3. Your recipe sound wonderful, but I have one important question: throughout your introduction to this recipe you use the term “almond flour”, but in the actual recipe itself, you list the ingredient as “almond meal”. I use both very frequently, but in my experience, almond meal would not result in smooth, thin crepes like the lovely ones in your photos. Was this a typo? Which do I use?

    Reply
    • Dear LynnR,

      I use both of them with almost the same result. But most of the time I just buy ground almonds and use those. As long as the almonds are not unfattened, it should work with both.
