These crepes are sweet and delicious with Nutella and berries. For savory breakfast recipes to pair with the Nutella crepes, try a breakfast casserole with bacon or ham and egg cups. I happen to adore crepes – they’re light, delicious and the filling choices are endless. These Nutella crepes are my very favorite, I make them at least once a month and my kids go crazy over them!
Nutella Crepes Ingredients
To make this recipe, you will need all purpose flour, granulated sugar, kosher salt, milk, large eggs, butter, Nutella, mixed berries and whipped cream. You can also garnish the crepes with fresh mint.
How Do You Make Nutella Crepes?
Place the flour, sugar, salt, milk, eggs and some of the butter in a blender, then blend until you have a smooth batter. Let the batter sit for 15 minutes. Heat a large pan on the stove, and coat the pan in a thin layer of butter. Add the crepe batter and swirl the pan until the batter covers the bottom. Loosen the edge of the crepe, then flip it. Repeat the process with the rest of the batter. Spread Nutella onto each crepe and add some fresh berries. Fold the crepes into triangles, then top with whipped cream and serve.
Tips For The Perfect Dish
The crepe batter can be made in advance and stored in the fridge for up to 6 hours. Be sure to stir it well before you use it. When making crepes, the trick is to use just enough batter to cover the bottom of the pan and work quickly to make sure the batter spreads evenly before it starts to solidify. Choose any type of berries you like. I typically do a blend of diced strawberries, raspberries and blueberries. Leftover crepes will stay fresh in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Store the plain crepes separate from the fillings, and assemble them right before serving.
Flavor Variations
These crepes are delicious as is, but you can easily customize the recipe to suit your tastes.
Fruit: Swap out the berries for other kinds of fruit such as bananas, peaches or pears. Nutella: No Nutella on hand? Try spreading some melted chocolate or hot fudge into the crepes. You can also do cookie butter with delicious results. Toppings: Instead of whipped cream, try a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent treat. You can also add a drizzle of chocolate sauce, or a dusting of cinnamon or cocoa powder.
Whether you serve these Nutella crepes for breakfast, brunch or as a dessert, they’re sure to be a bit hit!
