Nutella Cream-Filled Crepes

Thin French-style crepes filled with a rich Nutella cream mousse, topped with powdered sugar and fresh fruit for a decadent breakfast or dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup Nutella
  • 1 cup heavy cream, chilled
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar, plus extra for dusting
  • Fresh strawberries or bananas for serving

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk eggs and milk until combined. Add flour and salt, whisk until smooth and lump-free. Stir in melted butter. Let batter rest for 30 minutes.
  2. For the filling: Whip heavy cream to soft peaks. Add softened cream cheese, Nutella, and powdered sugar; whisk until smooth mousse forms. Chill until ready to use.
  3. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat, lightly butter. Pour 1/3 cup batter, swirl to cover pan thinly. Cook 1-2 minutes until edges lift, flip and cook 30 seconds. Repeat for 8 crepes.
  4. Spread generous Nutella cream on half of each crepe, fold in half then into quarters. Dust with powdered sugar and serve with fresh fruit.

Notes

Chill batter for tender crepes; don’t overmix mousse to avoid graininess. Warm crepes make Nutella spread easily. Stack cooked crepes with parchment to prevent sticking.
