These Carrot Cake Crepes are some of the best crepes I’ve ever had the pleasure to devour. I am not exaggerating when I said they are seriously addicting. And seriously easy too!
How to Make Carrot Cake Crepes
To make these Carrot Cake Crepes, simply process your carrots with some milk until smooth. If you have an older blender that can’t blend the carrots completely, that is totally okay. I actually really like some carrot texture in the batter.
After blending your carrots, blend in your eggs, butter, vanilla, sugars, flour and pinches of cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger until smooth. Refrigerate for at least one hour in order for the agitated gluten to “relax” and to bond to the milk and eggs in order to create light, airy crepes. If you have time or are able to plan ahead, it is always best to make crepe batter the night before or even a few hours before.
While the batter rests, you get to make your Cream Cheese Filling and Blueberry Sauce! The filling is a simple blend of cream cheese, powdered sugar, milk and vanilla that is oh so velvety with just the right amount of sweetness.
The Blueberry Sauce is equally stand-alone-delectable and is a simple simmering of blueberries, sugar, lemon juice and just a touch of cornstarch. After you simmer your Blueberry Sauce for 5-8 minutes, or until some of the berries burst, it will still seem a little thin but will completely thicken as it stands and you both wait in eager anticipation for it to douse your Carrot Cake Crepes.
When you’re ready to make your Carrot Cake Crepes, the brown sugar carrot cake batter cooks into the most satisfying slightly textured thin crepe that is pure palate pleasing bliss.
To make the perfect Carrot Cake Crepes, you want to make sure you heavily butter you pan and heat it to full medium heat before adding your batter. The first crepe will be more buttery and a little crisp but then your pan will be primed for perfect crepes. You should only need to lightly re-butter your pan after 6 crepes or so. You also want to make sure you don’t flip your crepes too early or they are likely to tear. Wait until the middle of your crepe is no longer shiny before flipping.
Then its time to slather your Carrot Cake Crepes with luscious cream cheese and blanket with sweet Blueberry Sauce.
And then its time to dig in. And become very very happy.

Ingredients
Blender Ingredients
- 2 cups sliced peeled carrots
- 1 1/2 cups milk (any kind but nonfat)
- 2 eggs
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
Blueberry Sauce
- 1 pint blueberries
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
Cream Cheese Filling
- 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
- 3/4 cup Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Garnish
- Powdered sugar (optional for sweeter)
Instructions
Crepe Batter
- Add all remaining Blender ingredients and blend just until smooth. Cover and refrigerate for at least 60 minutes (overnight is best). Meanwhile, make Cream Cheese Filling and Blueberry Sauce.
Cream Cheese Filling
- Beat cream cheese until fluffy and lump free. Add sugar, milk and vanilla and beat until smooth. Refrigerate.
Blueberry Sauce
- Combine Blueberry Sauce ingredients in a small saucepan and simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until berries break down and release their juices, about 5-8 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside. The sauce will be on the thin side but thicken as it cools. When ready to serve, add water to thin to desired consistency if needed.
Make Crepes
- Grease a nonstick skillet with butter and heat over medium heat. Using a ⅓ cup measuring cup, add batter to the center of the pan and swirl to spread batter into thin circle. Cook until golden on each side and no longer shiny in the center, approximately 1-2 minutes per side.
Assemble
- Add cream cheese to the center of each crepe and roll up then top with Blueberry Sauce OR, spread cream cheese on half of the crepe, fold in half then cover the top half of the crepe with cream cheese then fold in half one last time. Top with Blueberry Sauce.
- Dust with powdered sugar for sweeter crepes (optional)
Notes
**Total time does not include refrigerating batter as this will vary between individuals.

Karla says
I would love to make this recipe. I know it would be ok to use an old blender but could you suggest the amount of carrots shredded that the recipe needs?
Your recipes are certainly an inspiration in the kitchen! Thanks a lot!
Jen says
Thanks so much for making my recipes Karla, I’m honored you’re enjoying them! As far as the carrots, you need 2 cups sliced or shredded carrots that are then blended. Enjoy!
Vicki says
These are incredible! I definitely wasn’t patient enough to wait more than the minimum of 1 hour and they turned out delicious! Maybe next time I can plan ahead and make the mix the night before but the morning of worked out just fine! Thank you for sharing your recipes with the world!
Jen says
Thanks so much for making my recipes Vicki, and for the awesome review! I’m so pleased you loved these crepes so much!
Cathy says
Could you substitute baby food carrots? If so how much?
Jen says
Yes, that would work great. You will need the same amount, enjoy!
Diane says
Can you fill the crepes ahead of time? Do the crepes need to be warm or room temperature?
Jen says
Yes, you can fill them ahead of time. I prefer them warm, enjoy!
Karla says
I already made this recipe and it was perfect. I used my old blender and I had no problem. Now I only have frozen blueberries, will that still work for the sauce? Thanks!
Jen says
I’m so glad you liked it! Yes, frozen blueberries will work great, just thaw first.
