Low Carb Crepes are versatile hearty wraps for sweet or savory fillings. Each crepe is only 2.4 carbs giving you more options for your fillings!
Simple Crepe Recipe
Ok, these crepes were fun to make, and it only took me about 4 times to get it right, but that’s because on two occasions I didn’t write down the exact combination of flours that I used.
That just may happen more times then I care to admit!
These low carb crepes are thicker than your Basic Crepe Recipe, which I find fantastic for filling with heartier ingredients like shredded chicken, but if you want them paper thin, then you can adjust the liquid content.
Add an additional tablespoon of water or milk until reach the consistency you like best.
With Valentine’s Day coming up I wanted to share a grain-free recipe that you might want to enjoy with your sweetie or share at a gathering with the gals.
Ingredients for Low Carb Crepes
These crepes also make a great brunch entree or meal for any fun get together like a bridal shower or birthday celebration.
You’ll need these ingredients:
- almond flour, superfine
- coconut flour
- butter
- eggs
- milk
- vanilla extract
- salt
Crepe Wraps Can Be Prepared In Advance
If you are making these for guests, then you’ll be glad to know that these can be made in advance.
Store them in an air tight container in the refrigerator or freeze them until you want to fill them!
For a dessert filling try this scrumptious sugar-free ricotta cream. It’s absolutely delicious and so light and creamy.
I know you’ll be tempted to eat it by the spoonful!
I think taste testing is perfectly acceptable since there is plenty and you need to make sure the flavors are perfect for sharing, right?
For a savory crepe try the filling from Hey Keto Mama’s Low Carb Jalapeno Crepes!
Low Carb Crepes (Grain-Free)
Simple grain free crepes for a dessert or brunch entree. Fill with your favorite ingredients or whip up this sugar free ricotta cream.
Ingredients
- CREPES
- 2 tablespoons butter, unsalted melted and cooled
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup almond flour, superfine
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Ricotta Cream
- 1 1/2 cups ricotta cheese, drained
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 cup sugar free confectioner's sweetener (Swerve)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
In a large bowl whisk together eggs, milk, water, vanilla and butter. Sift in almond & coconut flours, and salt and whisk all ingredients together until batter is smooth. Let sit for 3-4 minutes as the flours absorb some of the liquid.
Heat a 8-9" skillet with oil or butter on a medium high heat. Add ¼ cup of batter and swirl batter in pan forming a circular pancake. Cook for about 2 minutes and flip to cook other side.
Fill with ingredients of your choice.
For ricotta cream place cheese, whipping cream, sweetener and vanilla in a large chilled bowl. Whip on low until combined, then increase speed to high and whip until thickened.
