Keto Bavarian Crepes Recipe

Keto Bavarian Crepes with Keystone Pantry Allulose

Ingredients:

• For the Crepes:

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 2 tablespoons Keystone Pantry Allulose
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any low-carb milk of your choice)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter (for cooking)

• For the Bavarian Cream Filling:

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup Keystone Pantry Allulose
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons gelatin (preferably grass-fed)
  • 1/4 cup cold water

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Bavarian Cream:

   • In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over the cold water and let it bloom (sit for about 5 minutes).
   • In a medium saucepan, heat the heavy cream, Keystone Pantry Allulose, and vanilla extract over low to medium heat. Stir occasionally until the sweetener is dissolved and the mixture is warm.
   • Add the bloomed gelatin to the warm cream mixture and stir until completely dissolved.
   • Once the gelatin is dissolved, remove from heat and allow it to cool slightly. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to let it set into a creamy consistency.

2. Make the Crepes:

   • In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, Keystone Pantry Allulose, eggs, almond milk, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth.
   • Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt a little butter to coat the surface.
   • Pour a small amount of the crepe batter (about 1/4 cup) into the pan and swirl to spread it evenly.
   • Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side or until golden brown, then remove from the skillet and set aside. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding butter to the pan as needed.

3. Assemble the Crepes:

   • Once the Bavarian cream has set, gently stir it to loosen up the texture.
   • Spoon a generous amount of the Bavarian cream onto the center of each crepe.
   • Fold or roll the crepes to enclose the filling.
   • Optionally, dust with a little more Keystone Pantry Allulose or a sprinkle of cinnamon for extra flavor.

FAQ – Keto Bavarian Crepes with Keystone Pantry Allulose

1. What makes these Bavarian crepes keto-friendly?
These crepes are made with almond flour instead of wheat flour and sweetened with Keystone Pantry Allulose, a natural low-calorie sweetener that doesn’t raise blood sugar. This keeps the recipe low in carbs while maintaining a deliciously sweet flavor.

2. Can I make the Bavarian cream ahead of time?
Yes! The Bavarian cream can be made a day in advance. Store it covered in the refrigerator until you’re ready to fill your crepes.

3. What is Keystone Pantry Allulose, and why use it?
Keystone Pantry Allulose is a natural rare sugar that tastes like sugar but has almost no calories and doesn’t spike blood glucose. It provides the perfect sweetness and helps the crepes brown beautifully without affecting carb count.

4. Can I substitute almond flour with coconut flour?
You can, but coconut flour absorbs more liquid. Use about 1/3 of the amount (roughly 1/3 cup) and add an extra egg to help maintain the texture.

5. How should I store leftover keto Bavarian crepes?
Keep the filled crepes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. If you want to store them longer, freeze the crepes (without the filling) with parchment paper between each one.

6. Can I make this recipe dairy-free?
Yes. Substitute the heavy cream with full-fat coconut cream and use plant-based butter. The texture will be slightly different but still creamy and rich.

7. What occasions are these keto crepes perfect for?
These make an elegant low-carb dessert for brunches, holidays, or romantic breakfasts — especially on occasions like Mother’s Day, Valentine’s Day, or National Bavarian Crepes Day.

8. Why use gelatin in the Bavarian cream?
Gelatin helps the cream set into a smooth, stable texture that’s light yet rich — just like traditional Bavarian cream but without added sugar or starch.
