Out of luck with desserts or just looking for something easy to make? Let’s try this keto crepes recipe to make the day!
The most basic crepe recipe consists only flour, water and oil but many like to enrich the batter with eggs and milk which produces a somewhat thicker, more complex end product.
Unfortunately, flour has gluten and carbs that makes it an unsuitable ingredient on gluten free or low carb diets.
Although, crepes don’t require any leavening that would make us sorely miss the gluten structure found in flour, they still rely on gluten’s cohesive forces to hold the whole disc together. Or at least, they do in the most basic form of crepes that doesn’t have any eggs.
If we are into a bit more exciting crepe mix and we would like to throw one or two eggs into our batter then substituting flour with nut flour, like almond or coconut, will cause no significant hurdles in our preparation process.
Making a keto crepe is just as easy as swapping the flour with low carb alternatives and let the rest flow on its own as usual. Except, maybe we forsake the one handed flipping, due to the stickiness of the low carb batter and try our luck somewhere else.

How to make Keto crepes
Almond flour
- Mix all the ingredients together. We get a slimy soft dough.
- Make it into a ball then cut it into 8.
- Roll them into balls.
- Place one piece between two parchment paper then flatten it by a rolling pin or simply press it down with a flat bottom dish.
- Carefully peel the parchment paper off. It tends to stick and tear at the edges.
- Use a non stick pan on medium heat to fry both sides until golden brown spots start to appear, 2 minutes each side.
Enjoy!
Coconut flour
- Mix all the ingredients together.
- Pour a quarter cup or so batter into a medium hot frying pan. Run it around the skillet.
- Fry both sides until golden brown spots start to appear, 2 minutes each side.
