Cream Cheese Pancakes (2 Ingredients!) - Wholesome Yum (2024)

Loved this for a savory crepe. I made it to use for manicotti for our holiday meal. Easy to make and no one knew it was gluten free. I made a big batch, froze them and then thawed, filled with ricotta filling, and baked them. Will definitely use again.

  I tried this recipe tonight and I love it, I hate almond flour recipes and that is what I love about this one, thanks for sharing 😍

I made them without sweetener or flavorings and topped them with smoked salmon, sour cream and chopped green onion. Yummy!

Wow! Super easy and super delicious I’ve been doing an awful lot of baking/ cooking with almond flour and what a delightful change not to have that nutty texture in something so yummy!

  They are good. I added sweetener, cinnamon and vanilla. I used a 1/4 cup as instructed but I only got a little over 3 servings. Wondering why?

    Hi Mary, I’m not sure why that happened but maybe next time, try to measure out 60 mL and see if that works out better for you.

These are really great! I used the mascarpone added a little extra salt. The vanilla, cinnamon and sweetener mask any egg flavor. These are best made smaller!
Make half sized (about 4 to 5 inch) crepes and they are dreamy. I put softened butter and a light drizzle of choc zero maple syrup (been meaning to try your recipe) in some and choc zero strawberry jam with a dap of mascarpone in the others.
I’ll be using this recipe on the regular from now on!

I was looking for a keto recipe that I could use to make wraps, and with few ingredients. I saw this one and multiplied the measurements by 4 do I could use the entire package of cream cheese. SO GLAD I DID!!! These are so tasty! I didn’t add anything to the eggs and cream cheese. They’re good even by themselves. I made myself a turkey and cheese wrap right away and loved it. Plus ate one by itself (you know, the sample, lol). Highly recommend. Thank you for sharing!

Can you use cultured cream cheese for these ( like Nancy’s or Good Culture)?

  Hi Holly, Yes, that would work.

I made these for my dinner tonight, they were delicious! I couldn’t wait to try them so no picture☺️
I used sweetener and Vanilla and topped with Wholesome Yum’s maple syrup. I haven’t had any kind of pancakes in years and I truly enjoyed these. Thanks, for another awesome recipe.

I was so excited about this recipe I saw it a few days ago Have been about it periodically, and decided to go for it and make it for dinner. I made it with mascarpone thinking oh this might be better, as well as a little bit of cinnamon and a few pinches of monk fruit. Verdict? Couldn’t even swallow the one bite I took. It was gross. I don’t know how you can get your kids to eat this. Generally, I’m an extremely adventurous eater, since I was a kid my mom would always make us try one bite of something new and if we didn’t like it that was our “no thank you bite”. As a result, I found that I like all kinds of things I would never have even thought to try, this was not one of those things. well, this ended up being a one no thank you bite type of thing. All I was thinking is, as I’m relatively new to keto, that I hope that it’s not a trend for keto recipes to be like the old vegan ones, where the ingredients are right, but where the taste/texture is just icky, and I wonder if people are convincing themselves that this stuff is tasty? Anyway, your site is beautifully made, and your writing is top notch, IMHO. This recipe, though? yuck.

  Hi Whitney, Sorry this recipe didn’t work out for you. However, I reserve the right to rate my recipes for those that have followed the recipe as written, which you haven’t done. I encourage you to try the recipe with the correct ingredients and then rate the recipe.

How many servings does this make? Like 2 eggs and two ounces of cream cheese makes ONE pancake, or more?

  Hi Dianne, It makes 4 pancakes, and nutrition info is per pancake.

Wow, very pleasantly surprised! For breakfast, I added a little cinnamon and maple extract. Very delish!!

I enjoyed these pancakes so much. Rolled one and added some chocolate chips and blueberries. Yum! I will be making these again for sure. Super easy, and I think I prefer these than the ones with almond flour.

These were quick and really easy to make.
I added lemon rind and a teaspoon of stevia to my mix. They didn’t really hold together, so next time I might add some xanthan gum, and see if that works. I filled my crapes up with thickened cream and Natvia jam and it was delicious. I will be making these again.

Heat a lightly oiled small skillet over medium heat on the stove. Swirl 1/4 cup (60 mL) of the batter on the pan. Cook for about 1-2 minutes, until bubbles start to form at the edges, then flip. Cook about 1 minute on the other side, until golden.

I made these tonight and they turned out great. I will be making these often.

Oh, these look divine! This is on my Sunday brunch menu! Thank you!

I love these for breakfast! SO yummy!!

Heavenly!! This is the easiest pancake recipe ever! We love adding cinnamon & we love that they are so thin!

I am so excited I found this recipe! We love these!

Absolute yum! Nothing beats a delicious pancake. Thanks for sharing your recipe!

Turned out very good! I make them in my ninja blender cup and a good crepe pan. The second time I added a teaspoon of coconut flour for the consistency. Soo good with strawberry jam 🙂

this used to be “4-Ingredient mascarpone Crepes” when I got it in Feb 2018. They are great and I love them filled with whipped cream and topped with a little chocolate sauce. But I was very surprised to see them now named “cream cheese crepes” when there is no cream cheese in them. Thought you had a new recipe.

  Hi Dianna, You can use cream cheese in place of the mascarpone if you like!

I tried this recipe and it tastes very good but compared to the other pancakes recipe, this one has a very liquid batter and it’s almost impossible to make a big nice crepe because it breaks while cooking.. Next time I’ll add coconut oil in the batter and probably baking powder and let’s see if is going to be easier to flip it… If this recipe will not work for you I suggest everyone to try the coconut flour pancakes recipe with Cream cheese (using mascarpone and cinnamon) and honestly I think it was the best one.

This was delish!!! Totally hit the spot and I ate all the servings. I didn’t have the recipe sweetener so I used a sweetener called Apple Sugar. I had this in my cupboard but had never used it, have you heard of it? I’m always looking for recipes that are low to no carbs and even with the Walden Farms sugar free syrup (probably not healthy but available as I live in a rural area and wasn’t prepared) eating all the servings, I was at 3.7g carbs, 38g Fat 16.1 protein 396 calories, I call this a huge win!

  Hi Jane, Apple sugar is made from apple juice, so it’s not sugar-free. If you are interested in picking up a few keto-friendly sweeteners, you can check out my preferred brand at Wholesomeyumfoods.com

Recipe for low carb granola bars calls for Clear Fiber Syrup. What or where is Clear Fiber Syrup? It’s not in your store.

  Being in Canada wondered if yor Besti products and Maple syrup will be available on Amazon.ca
  These sound great, I currently use Swerve or Monkfuit sweeteners. Would love to try Besti. Is Allulose approved?
  Thanks

Love it

Just made these this evening. They were wonderful!! Thank you!!

I made these a few weeks ago. I used the crepe to make BLT wrap ups. They were delicious. Thanks.

Wow! Best crepes ever!!! Thanks +++++++

Marrying into a Swedish family I had to learn how to make Swedish pancake 1st thing. We’ve been married 44 years so that makes the numbers of crepes I have made very, very high! When we switched to low carb I thought we would have to leave them behind. Then I found this recipe! While not exactly Swedish pancakes this recipe makes a very respectable copy. I am very pleasantly surprised since so many recipes claim to be as good as the original – and they are NOT. This recipe really is just as good as my husband’s Swedish grandma’s. Two other comments: these crepes are fragile and hard to turn. I suggest, if you are adventurous to try flipping. Also the batter is very thin, but that is a good thing. Use a small skillet just the size of the crepe and swirl, swirl, swirl but don’t swirl up the sides. One other thing – do you know if the batter can be frozen? I don’t normally have mascarpone on hand and if I buy it I’d like to be able to use it all up and then freeze the extra batter. Thank you so much! Hubby has a very happy tummy right now.

  Hi Shirley, I’m thrilled you love the recipe! I would not freeze the batter, but you can freeze the cooked crepes. Be sure to stick a layer of parchment between the crepes to make sure they don’t stick together.

Beyond terrible recipe. Just nope. Eventually I got the hang of your “crazy tilting” strategy for the pan to make the crepe mix spread, but it’s so thin the crepes fall apart, if they don’t burn first. It’s too exacting, just not viable to make real crepes that are nice. Not well explained. A shame really. I should add that I don’t usually have problems with recipes and have made quite a few zero-carb ones successfully. Needs some work I think.

  Hi Mary-Ann, Were your crepes crunchy on the outsides, or soft? It sounds like maybe the heat was up too high and that’s why they were burning.

These crepes have become a staple at my house! I tweak the recipe every once in a while if I am using for savory dishes. The key is definitely to swirl in pan and get temp right – the first crepe always gives me trouble!

    Delicious and easy. I made some of mine a little thicker and they tasted just as good. No issues with flipping. I made a fresh blueberry compote and raspberry compote (both sugar free) and a cream cheese whip cream (sugar free) and we filled and rolled them like fancy crepes. Devine. Tasted like they were terrible for you haha. Next time I think I want to try a savory combination bc I can tell they’ll be good that way too. My daughter said she wants to fill them with Nutella and fruit. We will make it again. Hardest part was waiting for the ingredients to get to room temperature.

What is mascarpone and where I can find? Will it work with regular cream cheese?

  Hi Quynh, you can usually find mascarpone in the grocery storer next to other soft cheeses. This will also work with regular cream cheese, though!

Super yum! I also had a hard time flipping them but I just heated up (and buttered) another pan on another element, loosened the crepe and flipped it into the second pan. This also made it faster as I could start another while the other was finishing!

Can you store the batter for use the next day or so? There are just so many to try. I was thinking that if I had out nearly all of the same ingredients, save a few, and you could prepare several different batters ahead of time. That would save me from having to cook them all the same day. However, if I need to cook them, it isn’t that big of a deal to meal. They all sound delicious.

  Hi Monica, I think you could at least store this batter overnight. I’m not sure how fresh it would stay longer than that.

These sound amazing as is, and I plan to try them. I love crepes. However, I was wondering, do you think that if I added a little bit of gluten and baking powder that this recipe would work to make something akin to funnel cake? I’m making funnel cake for my daughter’s birthday tomorrow, and it’s so HARD to resist. I need a workaround. I know that they wouldn’t be carb-free, but the difference between this and real funnel cake would be tremendous.

  Hi Diane, I don’t add gluten to any of my recipes so I’m really not sure. Definitely let me know if you try it, though!

Adding melted butter to this crepe batter makes them SO much easier to flip.

Hi there! I’ve made something like this before and loved it but forgot the exact recipe, so I was happy when I found yours. Decided to make them today with cream cheese and for some reason the batter is very thin. I even added extra cream cheese to try and thicken it up. I doubled the recipe and used a liquid stevia sweetener. Could that maybe be it?

  Hi Katie! I would definitely try it again with a non-liquid sweetener. The batter does need to be thin to make this recipe though. There is a video on the post you can watch to see how they are made.

    I did try them again with granular stevia and it was much better! I also decided to cook them using my dash mini waffle maker and they were perfect! Thank you (:
