Ingredients:

• For the blintzes (crepes):

• 4 large eggs

• 4 oz cream cheese, softened

• 1/2 cup almond flour

• 1/4 cup heavy cream

• 1/4 cup water

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• 1/4 tsp salt

• Butter or coconut oil for frying

• For the filling:

• 8 oz cream cheese, softened

• 1/4 cup powdered erythritol or preferred keto sweetener

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• Zest of 1 lemon (optional)

Instructions:

• Prepare the crepes:
• In a blender, combine the eggs, cream cheese, almond flour, heavy cream, water, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend until smooth and well combined.
• Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or coconut oil.
• Pour a small amount of batter into the pan, swirling to coat the bottom thinly and evenly.
• Cook for about 1-2 minutes, until the edges begin to lift and the crepe is lightly browned. Flip and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
• Remove the crepe and set it aside. Repeat with the remaining batter.
• Prepare the filling:
• In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, powdered erythritol, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until smooth and creamy.
• Assemble the blintzes:
• Place a spoonful of the cream cheese filling in the centre of each crepe.
• Fold the sides over the filling, then roll the crepe from one end to the other to form a neat package.
• Lightly fry the assembled blintzes in butter or coconut oil for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden and heated through.
• Serve:
• Serve warm, optionally garnished with fresh berries, a dollop of sour cream, or a sprinkle of powdered erythritol.
