- ½ cup 70 g whole wheat flour
- 1 tbsp. 10 g cornstarch
- 3/4 cup 150 ml almond milk (dairy milk works great, too)
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup 60 g plain Greek yogurt, 2%
- pinch of salt
- 1 tsp. oil for brushing a skillet

- 2 tbsp. 20 g. raisins
- 2-3 tbsp. stevia or 0 cal sweetener to taste
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
Instructions
- For the crepes batter, place all the ingredients except the oil into a blender and blend until smooth and combined.
- Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Slightly brush the skillet with oil and pour about 1/4 – 1/3 cup of the batter on the preheated skillet and swirl it around just to cover the bottom, making the crepe as thin as possible.
- Cook until the top comes to dry and the underside is golden; turn and cook on the second side for about 20 seconds.
- Transfer the crêpe to a plate or a cutting board. Repeat with the remaining batter.
How to Make Crepe Cottage Cheese Filling
- Mix the cottage cheese and cream cheese with a hand mixer or blender until soft and smooth.
- Add stevia or any sweetener, vanilla extract, and raisins. Mix well to combine.
- Spread a layer of the cheese mixture onto each crepe, and roll up the crepe like you would a wrap.
- Optional: If you would like to get a crispy texture, heat your nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, lightly brush with oil or butter, and add your filled crepes.
- Sauté on both sides until golden brown.
- Serve immediately with sour cream or yogurt and enjoy!
