Ingredients

Scale

Crepe Batter

  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • ½ cup water
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1/8 cup canned pumpkin

Pumpkin Cream Filling

  • 8 oz softened cream cheese
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • 2–3 tablespoons canned pumpkin (optional)

Optional Garnishes

  • Pumpkin spice or cinnamon for added taste and decoration

Instructions

  1. Prepare the batter: In a blender, combine the eggs, milk, water, salt, and pumpkin puree. Blend just until the mixture is smooth.
  2. Add the flour: Add the flour to the blended wet ingredients and gently mix just until incorporated; avoid over mixing to keep the batter tender.
  3. Heat and grease the skillet: Place 2 tablespoons of melted butter into a smaller skillet and heat over medium heat.
  4. Cook the crepes: Pour about ¼ cup of batter into the hot skillet. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until the underside is lightly browned.
  5. Flip the crepes: Using a small pancake turner, carefully flip the crepe and cook the other side for 1 to 1½ minutes until cooked through.
  6. Prepare the filling: Soften the cream cheese in a bowl. In a separate medium bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
  7. Add flavor to cream: Add vanilla extract and powdered sugar to the whipped cream and continue to whip gently.
  8. Combine cream cheese and whipped cream: Gradually add the softened cream cheese in small portions to the whipped cream mixture, blending softly until smooth.
  9. Add pumpkin to filling (optional): For a richer pumpkin flavor, fold in 2-3 tablespoons of canned pumpkin into the cream cheese mixture.
  10. Assemble the crepes: Place approximately 2 tablespoons of filling onto each crepe. Roll them up tightly.
  11. Garnish and serve: Optionally sprinkle with pumpkin spice or cinnamon to garnish before serving.

Notes

  • The batter should be gently mixed to avoid tough crepes.
  • Use a non-stick skillet for best results in cooking the crepes.
  • You can serve crepes plain or filled with the pumpkin cream filling as desired.
  • Adjust pumpkin in filling according to your taste preference.
  • These crepes can be made ahead and refrigerated; reheat gently before serving.
  • Optional garnish such as a dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of maple syrup complements the flavors well.
